I learned my art ability from my community and other meeting groups. I was raised outside of my community, but when my children were gone to challenge the world on their own, I was drawn to my native community. So, my husband and I bought the property and built a house. I became involved in the community through relatives, and started volunteering with the Tyendinaga Native Women’s Association. That was my saving grace, especially after the loss of my husband.

Today, I am still working with the Tyendinaga Native Women’s Association, plus a few others I have volunteered with over the years. The Native Women’s Association provides luncheons for families that have lost a loved ones, and this is my passion, and commitment.
