AMRA 2024 Mitakuye Oyasin Nominations

In the Dakota language, Mitakuye Oyasin translates to All My Relations. This phrase, while short, exemplifies a whole way of being and existing with our relatives, both in the spirit realm and those walking amongst us. Mitakuye Oyasin encompasses the variety of ways in which to care for ourselves, our relatives, our communities, and surrounding environmental ecosystems.

All My Relations is offering $1000 in unrestricted funds to 10 artists who have exemplified the Dakota translation of Mitakuye Oyasin: All My Relations. This award recognizes the roles artists serve to create a vision for a better future for our future generations. 

Artist nominees show dedication and commitment to their artistic practice, represent excellence in their contributions to the arts community, and embody the values of Mitakuye Owasin in how they carry themselves as American Indian people. This funding is designed to support the artist’s creative practice and well-being while allowing the artists the autonomy to determine what they need to thrive creatively, professionally, and personally.

Deadline: December 2st, 2024


Nominations: 

Any Midwest American Indian artist doing any art form is eligible. Yes, you can nominate yourself.

Note: This is a one-time, unrestricted funding opportunity, and there are no reporting requirements tied to these funds. 

Individuals awarded in 2022 are ineligible to apply for this award cycle.

The selection of artists will be determined by a jury of members within the Native American Community Development Institute staff, board, and All My Relations Arts advisory committee.
