Gifts from the Creator: Native American Traditional Arts celebrates younger Native American traditional artists from this region and their art (baskets, beadwork, regalia, woodwork, cornhusk dolls). The exhibit features the traditional art of Joey David, Michael Galban, Tonia Loran-Galban, Veronica Reitter and Antoinette Scott, and honors Lillian Kane, Seneca Elder and traditional artist.
All of the exhibiting artists participated in the Traditional Artists Biography Project, a partnership between the Arts & Cultural Council and the Friends of Ganondagan, to interview and write biographies of Native American traditional artists for the artists’ use in self-marketing.
The exhibit, Gifts from the Creator, is sponsored by the Arts & Cultural Council for Greater Rochester, and co-sponsored by the Friends of Ganondagan, Inc. For information, phone Susie Chodorow at (585) 473-4000 x208.
