ONEIDA, Wis. (AP) - As if they were in a “Harry Potter” film, antique portraits will come to life, talking to each other and to visitors in an upcoming exhibit on the Oneida Reservation.
The portraits feature tribal citizens acting in roles of their individual ancestors who played important parts in the two-century history of the Oneida Nation in Wisconsin.
The panels will be displayed as part of a cultural and tourism exhibit on the reservation later this year.
