This project will create an initial plan for an expanded cultural campus through interdepartmental collaboration while utilizing existing spaces to increase the number of community members familiar with traditional and contemporary tribal arts.

Participation in the training will help increase our organization's knowledge of developing and sustaining cultural programs from a financial standpoint. Staff will leverage this additional knowledge to increase the organization's capacity to implement additional programming and policies that empower community wellbeing through the continued sharing of cultural traditions and practices.

Attending the Association of Tribal Archives, Libraries and Museums (ATALM) conference will help foster strategies to learn more about our visitors and what they are taking away from their experiences. The new innovative techniques learned from the conference will overall help our cultural center be more connected with our community.

This project will increase the number of community members familiar with traditional and contemporary tribal arts and customs such as cedar weaving, cedar carving, beadwork, and drawing and painting. By utilizing and expanding on existing programming, the Hibulb Cultural Center will strengthen relationships between itself, tribal artists, and community members.
