Mcknight artist & Culture Bearer Fellowship

 

Culture Bearers uphold intergenerational traditions and evolving cultural art practices to preserve ancestral knowledge. They connect with youth to share and educate, especially in cultures facing external threats. This role is integral to maintaining cultural heritage and involves the intergenerational transmission of knowledge, distinguishing it from other art practices. The focus is on resourcing individuals within their own cultural lineages.
