Wahzhazhe Ribbon Work

Keeping Osage culture alive through our traditional ribbon work is special and unique, and many Osages view ribbon work as art.
In this edition of Osage Cultural Connection, you'll meet Osage Nation citizens Dana Daylight and Janet Emde, who say ribbon work is an art form and so much more. They say Osages are prayerful people, and through their ribbon work, they send prayers. Those prayers come together through the colors of the ribbons, carrying our people. And the beauty and blessings from a finished piece of ribbon work live on for generations to come.
About the series: The Osage Nation Cultural Center and Language Department have collaboratively created a series of videos dedicated to sharing, preserving and celebrating the values, teachings and tribal ways of the Wahzhazhe people. Special thanks to the Osage cultural team for making this series possible.
