This past summer when I received a cyanotype and bundle of sage in the mail, I knew I was part of something special. For years, Insight photography program has been bring students to the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Here the participants learn and experiment with a variety of photographic techniques, including printing photographs onto cyanotype cloth to create photographic quilts.

This year the 2014 Exposures Program includes youth and partnering educators from Oglala Lakota Sioux Little Wound High School in Pine Ridge, South Dakota, youth from the Eagle Rock High School in Colorado, and youth from In-Sight Photography Project in Brattleboro, Vermont.

I encourage you to donate what you can- this is a gift that will reach far beyond this summer.
