DescArtist in Business Leadership and Cultural Capital are similar programs which are grouped together for reporting purposes. There were 21 AIBL AND 7 CC grant recipients in 2015.Cultural Capital is designed specifically for master artists who have been practicing their art for 10 years or more. Artists also; 1) share a commitment to teaching their craft in their community to keep cultural expression alive; 2) have a plan to document their ancestral knowledge for the next seven generations; and 3) seek ways to sustain cultural sharing as a way of life within their tribal community. The First Peoples Fund grant program is open to all region-eligible artists and former Community Spirit Award recipients. Grants of up to $10,000 offer artists an opportunity to delve deeper into their art - sharing their artistry with all who want to learn. Each year, cultural capital fellows teach and share their knowledge with more than 100 community members.Artist in Business Leadership Fellowship is designed for artists with five or more years of experience marketing their art at Indian arts markets and galleries, and who have wholesale experience. Artists interested in applying for a fellowship should; 1) be committed to pursuing art as a way to build a business, and support both themselves and their families; 2) have a vision for expanding their business nationally; and 3) share a commitment to passing on ancestral knowledge and skills within their home communities.Eligible artists receive up to $10,000 in working capital funds to support specific entrepreneurial initiatives that will enhance their business and contribute to a consistent and reliable income for themselves, and their families.Benefits of the fellowship: First Peoples Fund's Artist in Business Leadership fellowship doesn't just help artists grow a business - it inspires them to fully honor their cultural creativity and grow the impact it has on their People.Artist applicants for both the Artist in Business Leadership and Cultural Capital programs must be a member of a Northern Great Plains tribe located in South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Western Dakota of Minnesota, Nebraska; the Eastern Plateau region of Idaho, Oregon, and Washington; a tribe from the Great Lakes Region of Minnesota, Michigan, or Wisconsin; a tribe belonging to the U.S. Eastern Seaboard states; Oklahoma; Native Hawaiian; or, an Alaska Native Tribe. Each artist receives individualized technical assistance and professional development guidance, as well as up to a $10,000 grant to offset capital expenses associated with growing a business.Impact of the fellowship: Our artist alumni tell us the program does more than just support an entrepreneurial spirit - it stimulates a renewed energy to challenge themselves and each other to create new work that pushes boundaries.Desc

DescCommunity Spirit Award honorees are chosen each year for their commitment to not just sustaining - but growing the understanding of - the cultural values of Native peoples. Artists are absolutely central to this important work, manifesting the tools that support the spiritual practices of all Native peoples. There were 4 recipients of this award in 2015.The process of bringing spirit to a community is an important responsibility for artists - it is part of a sacred honor system. Through this award, First Peoples Fund strengthens that honor system by recognizing exceptional artists for knowing themselves, honoring others and sustaining spirit in their own communities.Nominees must be practicing artists who have demonstrated a lifetime commitment to their art, engaging in their work for at least 10 years. The award is open to artists of any medium, from visual to performing to literary, in both traditional and contemporary forms. Previous year recipients are eligible to participate in our Cultural Capital grant program.The award comes with a $7,500 fellowship the artist can use to continue their cultural work. Fellowships are granted to artists who pass on traditions, show a commitment to building the strength of Native communities, and maintain direct ties to their tribal communities. Biennially, FPF recognizes 4-6 culture bearers by producing a theatrical performance celebrating indigenous artistry. The honoree celebration draws more than 300 community members and is held in Minneapolis, MN. During the other years, culture bearers are recognized within their respective tribal communities along side their family, friends, and community members.Desc
