*This program includes a total of six (6) in-person, after-school sessions. Two (2) concentrations are available to choose from, with both workshops held simultaneously at The Nave.

*Sliding-scale scholarships are available for students with demonstrated financial need.

Chloey Cavanaugh is Was’ineidi Tax’Hit, Eagle Wolf clan in Kake, Alaska and credits her commitment to community and culture from her grandfather Archie Cavanaugh. Born and raised in Southeast, Chloey believes that the panhandle of Alaska is more than the enchanting beauty it beholds, but a teacher, a way of life, and a distinct part of her Tlingit identity passed down from generation to generation. Chloey believes that Indigenous voices belong in all spaces and seeks to use her traditional Tlingit values to guide her decisions. She is based in Kake, but often travels to Anchorage for pop-up exhibitions, workshops, public programs, and community events.

This will be Chloey's first direct collaboration with The Nave. We are delighted to have her with us!
