Art needed for Health Center
Dear Tribal Member Artists;
The Confederated Tribes of Grand Rondc is beginning
construction of its Health and Wellness building. The fa
cility is scheduled for completion, July 1997. We, the tribal
Health and Human Services (HHS) Committee are work
ing on gracing our facility with fine art work. We believe
that our own tribal members are gifted artists and we are
extending this opportunity to you to show your work.
The HHS Committee has developed a budget for pur
chasing tribal member art work. We cordially invite you to
submit a portfolio of a sampling of your art work so that
selections can be made. While we would love to view your
art work first hand, we do not want to have it damaged by
mail or mishandling; therefore, we are asking that you send
a portfolio of your art which includes photographs and a
brief description of each piece. The art work can be made
from textiles, leather, metals, etc., which would include carv
ings, paintings, sculptures, beadwork, photography, bas
ketry, pottery, etc. The theme of the art should depict our
northwest and coastal culture and heritage. Please include
a price for each article.
