Nature-Inspired Stone Painting: Celebrating Native American History Month

Celebrate Native American History Month with the UMA Student Life Office through a creative, hands-on exploration of art, nature, and Indigenous perspectives!

Inspired by the artwork of Norma Randi Marshall, a Passamaquoddy artist whose work explores connections to nature, place, and Wabanaki heritage, this activity invites students to explore how artists express their relationships with the natural world.

Participants will have the opportunity to create their own nature-inspired painted stones, drawing inspiration from the colors, patterns, plants, animals, and landscapes that hold personal meaning to them.

No artistic experience is necessary, and all supplies will be provided!

Join us for an opportunity to get creative, learn about contemporary Wabanaki art, and celebrate the artistic contributions and living cultures of Indigenous communities.
