The Dakota Institute
The Dakota Institute is a new initiative of the Lewis & Clark Fort Mandan Foundation of Washburn, ND.
Directed by humanities scholar Clay S. Jenkinson, the Maximilian and Bodmer symposium was the first of many to follow, in a wide range of topics related to our sense of place.
The Institute is intended to foster a statewide "conversation," using a humanities-based approach to addressing current events and what the future holds. Book publishing, film documentaries and development of new interpretive exhibits and programs at the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center and Fort Mandan are all part of The Dakota Institute's mission.
