We’re partnering with the California Native Vote Project (CNVP) to host the Social Justice Campaign Academy — a two-day, hands-on training that helps youth grow as leaders and make positive change in their communities.

High school aged youth will learn how to identify community issues, set goals, organize campaigns, build support, and speak up with confidence — all grounded in Native culture and values.

📅 When:

Friday, Nov. 15 | 10 AM – 4 PM

Saturday, Nov. 16 | 10 AM – 3 PM
🍽️ Lunch provided both days

If you know someone who would be a great fit, please share the flyer. We are asking attendees to prioritize attending both days. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Last Saturday, October 25 Two Feathers hosted our 4th annual Spooky Walk in the “Kill Creek Theater”. We had a wonderful time haunting up the old Mill Creek Theater for this one time only event!!!

We scared over 860 people and loved every minute of it! We would like to thank the community for showing up and letting us entertain you! Also thank you to our youth volunteers, they “KILLED IT!!!” To Cal Poly Humboldt wrestling team for showing up and jumping in! And finally to McKinleyville and Arcata High’s Native American Clubs for scaring out room number 6!

We kicked off Halloween week with a Trunk or Treat on Monday, October 27. Between our Two Feathers Staff and youth we were able to put on this event and what a success it was!!! There was candy, games, spooks and fun!!!

Now, we have packed up Halloween and put it away until 2026! But have no fear, we will be staying busy with our school outreach and break activities…

Until Easter 2026 on April 3!

See you all soon 🎃

We want to thank Orleans elementary for inviting us to help out with their Indigenous Peoples day. Two of our staff (Mettah Kuska and Maymi Preston-Donahue) were able to work with youth and KTJUSD Indian Education program to lead a demonstration dance and Karuk language games for Orleans, Weitchpec, and Junction elementary schools. Big props to the kids for being brave and even sharing some songs! We also want to thanks Julian Lang, Laura Sanders, Olivia Rose Williams, Sydney McConnell and the McConnell family for helping to assist with dressing. All of our community partners from sticks (Forrest Davis) art, language, foods, powwow demo (Kibby family) and everything in between made this such a great event for our community. Yôotva!
