Top Alaska Art & Culture Classes

Savannah LeCornu is a self taught artist from Ketchikan Alaska. She is Tsimshian, Haida, and Nimiipuu (Nez Perce). She works in formline and plateau art styles and strives to create modern, accessible art that celebrates indigenous peoples. As an Indigenous artist, Savannah tells stories. Storytelling has always been important to us as a people and it is something she has always gravitated to. Through painting, drawing, and beading she creates stories that preserve traditions, contemporary stories that show that Indigenous peoples are still here and thriving, and stories of indigenous joy and love. She comes from multiple tribes and works in the art forms of both her northern coastal and plateau roots, often combining them. Through vibrant colors, humorous titles, modern elements and traditional shapes she strives to create art that reflects her unique view and invites the audience to rethink the preconceived notions they may have about Indigenous peoples and arts.
