Native American Cultural Center

We have touched briefly on this area under GOALS AND OBJECTIVES -However…the establishment, growth and advancement of this cultural center is not only vital to "our nation" --- but to our people as well. It is also an indicator of where our people are on their "walk" ---- what level of commitment they have or have not attained.

The Center that we are presently working toward is small --- But it is a start. We need and are striving for centers in each geographic area that we have large membership concentration. These centers need to provide class room space, a joint mutual craft area, room for resource books and materials, plus emergency housing on a temporary basis. There needs to be sufficient room for vegetable gardens, herb gardens and basic livestock (rabbits, chickens, goats, hogs, etc.). All of these things can meet the basic needs of "our people" when needed. The property that the centers are located on, needs to have a viable fresh water source independent and not dependent on electrical service.

Centers will allow us to teach not only the sacred oral teachings, but also the traditional "old" craft techniques…..plus basic survival skills. The making of soap, canning of food, preservation and conversion of herbs, hide tanning, sewing, tool construction, trapping snares, rain water conversion, alternate heating and cooling techniques, location of water and hand drilling, basic blacksmithing and operating a forge, black powder weapons and reloading "primitive" weapons, hand fired pottery, bone carving for utensils, ink making for quill writing, making paper,...etc.…etc. amongst other skills and techniques.

We gladly accept all forms of donations for this ongoing outreach including time and labor, materials, land, etc..
