We try not to make a big deal about it, but our staff members are not just great arts administrators, but pretty incredible artists in their own rights. Today, we had the enormous pleasure of seeing our very own Artist Programs Coordinator Anna Needham (Red Lake Ojibwe) perform her own award winning monologue as part of Yale Indigenous Performing Arts Program - YIPAP's Monologue Competition for Native Youth: Award Ceremony! Congratulations, Anna!
