WHAT WE DO |
INDIGENOUS WISDOMOne of the central themes to our mission is sharing Indigenous wisdom. This is always done in consultation with guidance from our First Nations friends and is done in the spirit of honoring - and learning from - as it is our belief that society as a whole desperately needs exposure to indigenous beliefs, values and ways of life if there is to be healing as a People and a planet. Multiple times a year, our Lakota friends travel to the Colorado front-range to share their culture and wisdom.

Supporting Lakota Artists
Lakota arts and crafts reflect their rich cultural heritage and remain an important aspect of their Lakota identify. Artists are invited to visit our volunteer groups when on Pine Ridge to display their art, conduct live demonstrations as well as teach the history and significance around their chosen medium. Bead-work, quill-work, paintings, jewelry and moccasins are some of the art forms that are shared. Supporting these artists through purchasing their art is an important part of their livelihood on the reservation. |
