Giinawind centers and highlights Indigenous art and artists. It is a gathering place for the creative community and an opportunity for cultural connections. We are seeking proposals from local Indigenous artists and instructors interested in teaching community-based classes and workshops such as drawing, painting, printmaking, woodworking, weaving, pottery, beading, creative writing, and more. Artists who teach in other media are also welcome to submit a teaching proposal. We have dedicated studios for drawing and paint, ceramics, and printmaking. We are seeking instructors for children’s, teen, and adult programming.
