This event is part of the series Cultural Currents: The Role of Mentorship in Native Arts.

Mentorship in the arts has long played an important role in the continuation and growth of cultural knowledge and practice in Native communities. This year’s Native Arts Speaker Series explores the relationship between artists and their mentors and the ways in which mentorship both preserves Native Arts and provides new paths for advancement.

Join us and our esteemed speakers for conversations about the mentor-mentee relationship, the continued importance of passing on cultural knowledge, skills, and artistic practices to the next generation, and the ways mentorship continues to shape the future of both traditional and contemporary Native Arts.

All events are free to the public and take place at the School for Advanced Research. The events can also be viewed live on SAR’s YouTube channel.
