A Red Feather Initiative
Sovereign Threads Project
Traditional craft, in the hands of those who teach it. Lectures from those who carry the stories. Community, woven together.
The Sovereign Threads Project is now enrolling instructors and participants. Reach out to join as a learner, teacher, or speaker.
Art as memory. Craft as teaching.
Hands-on sessions led by Indigenous artists — beadwork, regalia, ribbon work, and the crafts that carry our story forward. These workshops are open to the community and guided by those who have inherited the knowledge firsthand.
- Beadwork and regalia construction led by practicing Indigenous artists
- Ribbon work, textile arts, and traditional sewing techniques
- Intergenerational teaching — elders and youth working side by side
Lectures & Talks
Knowledge shared is knowledge kept.
Our lectures and talks program now lives on The Red Feather Project page — where you can learn more and request a speaker for your school, organization, or event.
Growing the circle together.
Beyond workshops and lectures, Sovereign Threads hosts additional gatherings, learning days, and cultural events throughout the year — creating more touchpoints for the community to come together, celebrate, and reconnect. Open workshop time is available throughout the week, giving community members a relaxed space to drop in, work on their craft, learn from one another, and connect with our instructors.
