Red Eagle Soaring

Mission

To empower American Indian and Alaska Native youth to express themselves with confidence and clarity through traditional and contemporary performing arts.

Description

Red Eagle Soaring (RES) is a Seattle-based nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization supporting youth access to Native arts and culture. Our free programming integrates contemporary theatre and traditional Native performing arts. RES engages Native youth in critical discussions about the issues affecting their lives and provides an affinity group where youth can build confidence, identity, and community. RES empowers Native youth to express themselves, take creative action, and to sustain their cultural heritage. We are ramping up fundraising to support our recent move to King Street Station.
