“Fire In The Village: How Art and Culture Help Us Remember That We Are Power”

Speakers: Shanai Matteson and Annie Humphrey, Village Artists

The goals of Fire in the Village are to create art and culture experiences in small communities and cities to remind people that we are made of earth and we are power.  These concerts and workshops center on themes of shared connection with land and water, the importance of free thinking and creative expression, and care of our communities in tumultuous times.

Shanai Matteson is a writer, an artist, and a cultural organizer.  She had devoted much of her adult life to encouraging others to create and find community, to protect water, and to seek justice.

Annie Humphrey is enrolled with the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe.  She resides on the Leech Lake Reservation with three generations under her roof.  Annie is a visual artist, singer/songwriter, carpenter, veteran (USMC), grandmother and woodswoman.

This EnviroThursday is co-sponsored by the Environmental Studies Department and Media and Cultural Studies.
