Art for the Soul Gallery was proud to host a first-of-its-kind “show of force” of Native American art and culture in New England. Beyond contemporary artwork, the show included a broad range of programming. Traditional music performed by the Urban Thunder drummers and singers, a workshop with renowned guitar maker and guitarist John Longbow, live music by John Longbow & Friends, and performances by the Peace Poets. Film and lecture series as well as elementary school visitors were sponsored by UMass Center at Springfield.

Exhibition and programming made possible in part by a grant from the Springfield Cultural Council.
