Event Title
Fueling the Fire Inside: Bridging the rich diversity of the world’s indigenous cultures through art
Description
Some of the most brilliant cultures of the world were ahead of their colonizers’ time; and only now, hundreds of years later, are being recognized for their visionary insight into the ways of survival as they pertain to the future of this world. As indigenous peoples, we must recognize the role our creative leaders play in identifying and interpreting daily history, in embracing creative solutions to the most serious challenges and in producing visual artifacts that tell our stories.
