TAC shareholder Dolores Anna Merculief-Davis lives as an example proving that when life carries us far from the region, Unangax̂ people can stay connected to our culture and to each other. Ever since her family moved from St. George to Anchorage when she was just 10 years old, Dolores has sought ways to develop her skills as an artist.
“Back then, in 1976, Anchorage schools didn’t have Native arts and crafts, so I had to learn about them the other way, traditionally,” Dolores tells us. As an adult, she began selling jewelry, which gave her experience marketing through social media.
Keep a lookout for the Spring Newsletter for the rest of her story!
