ISAPD visited Cornell University to see the work-in-progress screening of Waaki – Sanctuary, by film maker, Victor Masayesva (Hopi). The faculty of Cornell’s American Indian and Indigenous Studies Program (AIISP) were kind enough to offer a place for ISAPD to stay in Akwe:kon, the first university residence hall designed and developed to celebrate American Indian culture and heritage.
ISAPD had the chance to explore I.M. Pei’s Johnson Art Museum on Cornell’s campus as well as Milstein Hall, designed by Remington Koolhaas in 2011.
