We want to give a BIG THANK YOU to Four DIrections Student and In Progress artist Whitney Stevens who helped to hang her first exhibit up at the All Our Relations Gallery (Ancient Traders) in South Minneapolis this week. Whitney is a media arts student that usually works in video as her art form but made an exception this week to help promote the digital artwork of young Native American artists.
The Ogichidaakweg Exhibit - We Sing Our Songs will open this friday at the All Our Relations Gallery at Ancient Traders in South Minneapolis. The show is a retrospective of digital photography and video works that honor Native American life and culture. More than 100 young artists from Nett Lake Village (Bois Forte Nation), Kego Lake, S Lake, Cass Lake (Leech Lake Nation), Red Lake and Minneapolis will present digitally created stories represented in both print and digital mediums.
The show will be open September 18th through October 30th and will feature a closing event in which we hope some of the artists will attend.
We Sing Our Songs is open Fridays & Saturdays 12PM -6PM on Fridays and Saturdays
