Our Nett Lake
circa 2007
Youth from Nett Lake Village worked with IP artists Nikki Isham and Kristine Sorensen to create a series of digital portraits and collages that were later featured as a poster exhibit that was shared throughout the community.
Ogichidaakweg began in 1998 as a digital art making and leadership program for young women living on the Leech Lake Reservation. Over the past decade, many of the young women that started as participants are now the teachers and the organizers, sharing their experiences, knowledge and hearts with an entirely new generation of young storytellers including youth living in Nett Lake Village.
