- To promote art through our culture in the valley to educate others in our culture and lifestyle to work as a group help craft new artists throughout our history and make it our future.
- To expand our art to other artists and teach others outside the valley about our lifestyle and culture; to travel and learn about other tribes and cultures in art. Community centered in bringing together others in our artwork, to mentor the next generation through art and to keep our history alive.
- To encourage young entrepreneurs—artists, artisans, poets, etc.
- To have club pride and solidarity—with art, designs, club logos—fundraising
- To work with young people in the community, encouraging them in their art create events—like the chalk it up for books.
- To get our local children's stories, illustrated by students, published by Native American book publishers (with grant funding). (This project has begun with a collaboration with Wendy Searles Wilson’s writing students.)
Representing authentic Native American Contemporary Artworks, handcrafted by a group of culturally diverse individuals working in contemporary context, our group has a strong sense of pride in heritage. All the artwork done is inspired by our surroundings, our beliefs. Shown are our original houses, our dance grounds and our dancers. Our artwork also shows tribal designs. |
