Sisters United, in collaboration with the Great Falls Public Schools Indigenous Education Department, has created a new collaborative project called NEST — Nurturing Emerging Storytellers and Traditions.
Through this project, we will host Indigenous artists to share their skills, stories, cultural practices, and creative resources with Indigenous students across Great Falls Public Schools and Great Falls College. Depending on the artist and medium these groups will vary in size and age.
The goal of NEST is to provide students with a meaningful, immersive experience rooted in Indigenous knowledge and creativity; helping them connect with tradition, explore their own voices, and carry these stories forward in both new and traditional ways.
Check back in November to see photos from our first NEST Event!
