Cultural activities, site visits, and other presentations are held during the evenings and, like the weavers’ gathering and Native arts sale, are held during the days of the conference.
The Sharing Our Knowledge conferences began in 1993 and continued in roughly two-year increments until the late 1990s. The conference was reprised in 2007. See links below for conference-specific information.
