Events › Teen Film Screening: Teachings of the Tree People: The Work of Bruce Miller (2006)

Join us for a screening of Teachings of the Tree People: The Work of Bruce Miller and make art to celebrate Native American Heritage month. Materials will be provided.

Nationally acclaimed artist and Skokomish tribal leader Gerald Bruce Miller (Subiyay) interpreted the sacred teachings of the natural world for anyone who wanted to learn. A passionate student of traditional culture, Bruce became the bearer of the language, oral history, art, and spirituality of the tuwaduq (Twana) and Southern Coast Salish peoples. This gentle and generous film is the parting gift of a great teacher, artist, and orator.
