A New Video Created by Cultural Conservancy
The Cultural Conservancy has completed a short film called, “Guardians of the Waters-Native Youth Explore Cultural and Ecological Health” in collaboration with Sonoma Mountain Institute and the Occidental Arts & Ecology Center (OAEC). Aside from the cultural preservation that the Cultural Conservancy projects, much of the boat building and paddling processes occurred at OAEC pond as they worked on Tule projects from the Tule’s harvested at SMI’s lake. The video was produced by Mateo Hinojosa, Nicola Wagenberg and the youth. The world premiere was held at the recent Indigenous Forum at Bioneers.
