Grant Overview

The Native Arts Revitalization grant in Wyoming targets specific outcomes related to the preservation of traditional Native American dance and music. The state's Native American communities have a rich cultural heritage, with 8 federally recognized tribes and a significant presence of Native American cultural centers. Wyoming's outcome goals focus on increasing the capacity of Native American artists, preserving cultural traditions, and developing culturally sensitive programming. The grant aims to support 15 cultural performances and festivals across the state, with a focus on tribal cultural centers and community events.

Why do these outcomes matter in Wyoming? The state's Native American communities face significant cultural preservation challenges, as traditional practices and knowledge are lost over time. Wyoming's Native American population is dispersed across the state, with significant populations in Fremont, Hot Springs, and Big Horn counties. By supporting cultural performances and festivals, the grant helps preserve Native American cultural heritage and promotes cross-cultural understanding.

Wyoming's Native American Cultural Landscape

The grant is implemented in partnership with Wyoming's tribal councils and cultural centers. Eligible recipients must demonstrate a clear understanding of Native American cultural protocols and develop programming that is culturally sensitive. In Wyoming, this involves working closely with the state's Native American communities and developing workforce training programs for Native American artists. Unlike neighboring states, Wyoming requires demonstration of tribal council approval and cultural center partnership due to the state's unique Native American cultural landscape.

Supporting Native American Artists in Wyoming

The grant prioritizes projects that demonstrate a clear plan for workforce training and capacity building among Native American artists. Wyoming's Native American artists face significant challenges in terms of access to training and resources, with many cultural centers and artists operating in isolated areas. By supporting Native American artists and cultural programming, the grant helps preserve Wyoming's rich Native American cultural heritage.

Wyoming's Frontier County Considerations

Projects that serve the state's frontier counties, where Native American populations are often dispersed, will be given priority. The grant recognizes the unique challenges of delivering cultural programming in these areas, where distances between communities can be significant and resources are limited.
