Help us soar! Contribute to CKM&A
Now in our 9th season, CKM&A is grateful for the opportunities to broaden our national reach as we prepare for Native Intelligence / Innate Intelligence this year. The work has collaborators, partners, presenters and supporters that connect us to a network that crisscrosses the United States. The enormous scale of Native Intelligence / Innate Intelligence reminds us of our many responsibilities; as storytellers, as a small business providing equitable pay to artists, and as a community centered arts group fostering meaningful and layered engagement through performance, education and gathering.
