Description

The ultimate purpose is to (1) develop mechanisms through which Wabanaki youth are afforded access to arts and cultural traditions (2) to increase the number of tribal youth who are engaged in structured learning with their elders while engaging in a fun and worthwhile activity and (3) to provide multi-generational small business, financial capabilities and technical support to participants in Wabanaki communities across Maine. Further, this project will help invigorate and expand an existing branch of FDDC programming and fully launch the Wabanaki Marketplace as a destination for Wabanaki artists and enthusiasts to provide expanded opportunities well beyond the program.
