Join the Buffalo AKG for a screening of Sky Woman Women, followed by a panel discussion honoring Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

The Sky Woman Women project holds space for eighteen women storytellers from Mohawk, Seneca, and Tuscarora tribal affiliations, telling and retelling the story of Sky Woman, a Haudenosaunee creation story, to each other. The conversation happens in the round, as the women discuss and unpack the teachings of the story on a personal level. The circular structure includes the viewer as part of the conversation.
