An exploration of deep-time regional presence, and continuity of culture through stories and documentation of regional Indigenous families. Beginning in 2022, the Vermont Abenaki Artists Association undertook a storytelling and art-based project to determine the experiences and perceptions of Vermont’s Native American community during the global pandemic. In addition to disparities, their artwork and stories revealed deep-rooted family memories, intergenerational trauma, and the healing that is possible through community projects connecting with cultural heritage, arts, and education.
