Redhawk Native American Arts Council Teaching Artists

The Redhawk Native American Arts Council is an organization of teaching artists who preserve Indigenous culture and teach it at pow wow festivals and in classrooms.

The Council manages traveling exhibits and offers a variety of educational and corporate diversity programs. It also supports Indigenous artists and provides scholarships to promising Native American students.

These are just a few of the many Indigenous cultures of the Americas.

Our origins and cultural training influence how we see Indigenous peoples. But there is a cultural continuum from the northernmost Arctic to Tierra del Fuego at the southern tip of South America. Every ecological niche had a tribe of Indigenous peoples who lived there in harmony with the land.

Each tribe is unique, but people of the land share many cultural traditions. Our variations are rich and beautiful, but the similarities are what is the most striking. People do similar things no matter when or where we come from. We’re all human after all.
