No More Stolen Sisters Dedication

Date and Time: Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025 at 5 p.m.
Location: City County Building, First Floor Lobby
210 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Madison, WI 53703

This evening, the City County Building hosts the dedication of Festival founder Gene Delcourt’s sculpture No More Stolen Sisters and the unveiling of Tom Jones’s portrait of Cameryn Collins. Both works speak to Indigenous experience and to the deeper history of Teejop, the homeland of the Ho Chunk people.

Gene carved No More Stolen Sisters during the 2024 Harry Whitehorse International Wood Sculpture Festival. The raised red hand was cast from the hand of June Whitehorse. The sculpture calls attention to the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.

The program also dedicates a new portrait by Tom Jones. Jones is a Ho Chunk Nation member and Professor of Photography at the University of Wisconsin Madison.  His portrait of Cameryn Collins is unveiled tonight.
