Woodland POP! presents “Wampum is Forever: Decentralization and NFT’s” an online talk by entrepreneur and founder and CEO of Royalty Data Donna Tremble as part of exhibition programming. Join us to learn more about Tremble’s fascinating research into wampum origins, Anishinabek culture and history, and the relationship between wampum, NFTs and blockchain technology.
