Resilience and Perseverance: A Student Art show

 

Resilience and Perseverance is an annual temporary exhibit that features paintings by Native American students from Owyhee Combined School, located in the Duck Valley Indian Reservation, Owyhee, Nevada.

The Duck Valley Indian Reservation is in both Nevada and Idaho, and is occupied by descendants of the Western Shoshone and Northern Paiute tribes.

“Resilience and Perseverance: A Student Art show” runs annually from July 1 thru October. 2023’s exhibit included 27 paintings and 9 fired pottery pieces by Owyhee junior high and high school students.

Julianto worked closely with California Trail Interpretive Center staff to create the exhibit.

Paintings are sold in the Trail Center’s gift shop with 100% of the sale price going directly back to the artists. The exhibit is organized through  Southern Nevada Conservancy, a Trail Center partner.
