As a museum program, it is an instructive example of how Native people and state institutions can work together to promote understanding and to support indigenous cultures. The Portal is also a place of dynamic interaction among a diverse group of Native American artists and visitors from around the world.
Karl Hoerig has worked collaboratively with the program's participants since 1995. Utilizing extensive interview extracts, this history and ethnography explores the Portal from the inside out.
