7th Gen collaborated on the Waterway of Change Exhibit in the Longshed at Canalside, contributing to the commemoration of the Erie Canal Bicentennial. The organization conducted in-depth research and authored exhibit content, offering a nuanced perspective on Erie Canal history through an Indigenous lens. This project highlights the complex relationship between the canal's development and its impact on the Haudenosaunee people, ensuring that visitors gain a deeper understanding of this often-overlooked narrative. This collaboration reflects 7th Gen’s dedication to amplifying Indigenous voices and preserving history within the broader story of Western New York.
