High resolution 18″ x 24” poster of Indigenous Puyukitchum/Ipai/Mexican American Indian artist, James Luna. "His powerful works transform gallery spaces into battlefields, where the audience is confronted with the nature of cultural identity, the tensions generated by cultural isolation, and the dangers of cultural misinterpretations, all from an Indigenous perspective.” As with all our posters, feel liberated to print out, wheatpaste, repost/regram, and disseminate at will!

ASPIRING PERFORMER PLEASE HELP

Hey guys!

This summer I have the wonderful opportunity to travel to Germany for an intensive musical theatre program with the International Performing Arts Institute. I will be spending one month in Hamburg, Germany working with professional actors, producers, casting directors, choreographers, artistic directors, ect. I am beyond excited to go to Germany and work on my professional training even more but I am in a bit of a rough spot at the moment.

The whole trip itself costs around $5000 and my family does not have the money to pay for it right from our pockets. I'm currently setting up some performance opportunities at restaurants and a benefit concert at a church but I know I need more help. On the side I am also a Wayfinder Princess at birthday parties but that is never a solid job.

I'm currently a music theatre major freshman, a broke college freshman. I also learned that apparently the program I'm traveling with, IPAI, doesn't usually take freshman.

It would mean so much to me if some of you could donate some money. You don't have to donate a thousand dollars, no. Any amount, five dollars, would be so helpful! If you truly are like "hmmmm what can this girl do?" I have a YouTube channel with some videos. There are also videos on my GoFundMe. Any help at all would be so wonderful.

Please, anything at all. I love you guys so much!

Basketry Plants Used by Western American Indians

by Justin F. Farmer

[From the back cover:]

About the Book:

Experience has shown that a substantial number of Indian basket devotees are only vaguely familiar with plant materials used to create baskets, despite the fact that basketry identification depends, to a great extent, on recognizing the species of plants used in their construction. In this book Justin Farmer has selected thirty-seven of the most common plant species used by western North American and Canadian Indian basket makers. Photos of each plant are shown as they may be found in nature and in a basket. Specifics on fifty-seven western North American tribes are discussed, as well as array in a comparative format.

About the Author:

Justin Farmer traces his heritage to the Ipai (northern Diegueno) band of “Mission” Indians of southern California. He learned basket making from an elderly cousin and has offered approximately thirty-five classes in making these baskets. He is an ardent weaver, collector, and student of Indian basketry and is very active in Indian basketry and cultural circles. He has written extensively on the subject and has been awarded many commendations for these efforts.
