NABA-DC has organized a tour of the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) Archives for November 17th from 9:30am to 11:45am. The tour will be followed by an optional lunch in the NMAI cafeteria provided by NMAI and NABA-DC.

**You must be a current NABA-DC member to attend.** This event will be open to the first 20 NABA-DC members who RSVP. We will keep a waiting list if we go over the 20 member limit. Out of courtesy, we ask that you give us 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel so that we can let those on the waiting list know ASAP.

What: Tour of the NMAI Archives
When: Thursday, November 17th
Time: 9:30am to 11:45am (with time on either end for transportation and an optional lunch)

NABA-DC May Happy Hour @ Black Finn | Washington | District of Columbia | United States
Please join us next Thursday, May 18 at 5:30 p.m. for a special NABA Happy Hour event at Blackfinn Ameripub DC. As many of you may know, Dawn Baum will be leaving D.C. to start her new career and adventure in Northern California as General Counsel with The Yurok Tribe. Dawn has been a leader and mainstay of NABA-DC and the greater DC Native community, serving on the Executive Board as Secretary in 2006-2007 and as President in 2010-2011. Dawn also established the NABA-DC awards program that is now an annual event through which NABA-DC recognizes outstanding contributions to the Indian law field and community. We are saddened and thrilled for Dawn’s next chapter as we bid farewell to a wonderful attorney, leader, mentor, colleague and friend. Blackfinn will be extending their Happy Hour specials to 7:30 pm for the group and the NABA-DC board will be purchasing a farewell gift that you are welcome to contribute to. If you would like to contribute, please contact Xavier Barraza at xavierbarraza@gmail.com.
