The Initiative highlights the work of contemporary Indigenous artists across different fields, while providing opportunities for arts generation by language activists working from and/or with Indigenous languages and communities. Planned activities include artist events, craft talks, fellowships, generative workshops at the Point Reyes Field Station, and other activities. This initative was created by ARC Director Beth Piatote in fall 2022.
