Chickasaw Nation celebrates Youth Arts Month with creative initiatives
The Chickasaw Nation is recognizing Youth Arts Month (YAM) with a focus on visual arts and art education. This year’s theme, “Healing Through Color,” highlights the therapeutic benefits of art and chromotherapy. The Chickasaw Nation offers numerous year-round programs for youth, including the Chickasaw Arts Academy, After School Art Program, and the Chickasaw Young Artist Studio. These initiatives provide creative opportunities for children to explore art while promoting healing and expression.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government for everyone who cares about transparency in Native issues. Our work bridges the gap left by tribal-controlled media and non-Native, extractive journalism, providing the insights necessary for truly informed decision-making and a better quality of life. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise.
