Mounds, Moon, & Stars:
The Legacy of Ohio’s Magnificent Earthworks

Presented by the Great Circle Alliance & Hilliard UMC

The exhibition explores the profound celestial and cultural connections embedded in the ancient earthworks of the Hopewell tradition, where sky, land, and spirit align. Inspired by the sacred geometry of the Great Circle, lunar cycles, and star paths, Mounds, Moon, and Stars invites viewers to reflect on the timeless dialogue between human creativity and the cosmos.

The Great Circle Alliance is a local not-for-profit organization committed to honoring and reinterpreting Indigenous legacies through art and education.

Public Talk with Dr. Belinda Gore:
The Legacy of Ohio’s Magnificent Earthworks

Wednesday, October 22, 7pm

Forty miles away is a sophisticated ceremonial site, the largest geometric enclosure in the world and designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage site in 2023. These Mounds, as they’ve been called, are a repository of wisdom understood by the Hopewell era peoples who built them. In this presentation we’ll explore what this legacy is and what it means to us.
