Turtle Soup: Keith BraveHeart - The Dream Catchers Artists Guild

About this event

Keith BraveHeart invites you to celebrate the members of The Dream Catchers Artists Guild: Arthur Amiotte, Rechinda Gloria (R.G.) [Cook] Bowker, Roger Broer, Robert Freeman, Donald Montileaux, Robert “Bobby” Penn, Richard Red Owl, Donald Ruleaux & Vic Runnels.

Founded in 1983, the guild held a vision for artist-voiced creative standards within Lakota Arts and the development of professional opportunities for tribal artists of the Northern Plains.

The Dream Catchers Artists Guild organized themselves with sincere intentions “to create and foster a greater understanding and appreciation for the art of Lakota people, not only between Indian and non-Indian people, but to revive the same among the Lakota people” (The Dream Catchers Artists Guild, Ltd., Exhibition Catalog, Sioux Indian Museum and Crafts Center, U.S. Department of Interior, 1987).

Keith BraveHeart is a visual artist, arts educator, and community organizer. His creative practice includes: painting, independent exhibition curation, documentary film, and community-engaged arts initiatives. He is a citizen of the Oglala Sioux Tribe and received his BFA from the Institute of American Indian Arts and MFA from the University of South Dakota. BraveHeart continues to advocate for the arts in South Dakota, across the Northern Plains region, and within his tribal homelands of the Oglala Lakota.
