Los Altos History Museum presents “ She Sang Me a Good Luck Song: The California Indian Photographs
of Dugan Aguilar ” from March 20 to June 8, 2025. This traveling exhibition features 28 compelling images
that redefine conventional portrayals of Native peoples, capturing the resilience and artistry of basket
makers, dancers, military veterans, and motorcyclists.
Based on the Heyday Books publication edited by Theresa Harlan (Kewa Pueblo/Jemez Pueblo), the
exhibit celebrates the work of the late Aguilar (Mountain Maidu/Pit River/Walker River Paiute), who spent
over 40 years documenting Native cultures through his lens.
In addition to Aguilar’s photographs, the exhibition will feature videos, photographs, and objects
representing the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe, with a focus on the 2024 Trail of Truth , in which members of the
Tribe traveled by horseback from San Francisco to Washington, D.C. to raise awareness of their fight for
federal recognition.
The exhibition is presented in partnership with Exhibit Envoy, Heyday Books, and the Native Fund, and
curated by Theresa Harlan and Dugan Aguilar.
