The M requests funding to create a Native Arts Partnership Council that will guide the expansion of our Native Arts Initiatives. Consisting of key Indigenous artists, elders, and educators, the group of 7-10 individuals will represent the diverse tribes and tribal demographics of the region. Members of the council will be invited to engage in a process of co-creation that will work to deepen our focus on Native Arts and launch an ongoing Native Arts Council that is Native- and community-led.
