Power in Making: Indigenous Tradition & Innovation

As part of NU Women’s History Month, join award-winning artists as they discuss how family and tradition inform their incredible works of art. Hear from Tina Mt. Pleasant (Tuscarora, Turtle Clan), a Tuscarora raised beadworker, Jodi Lynn Maracle (Kanien’kehá:ka or Mohawk), a contemporary mixed media and performance artist, and Violet Printup (Tuscarora, Bear Clan), a NU student, beadworker, and dancer. See images of their works and learn about their artistic practices, views on gender roles in the art world, and how they communicate important elements of their identities through their pieces.
