The Honoring Dakota Project is dedicated to creating community engagements, projects, and events that provide education to discover our shared stories, bridge our communities, and create a space for healing. A place to share information and inspiration in our shared collaborative efforts to bring about social, economic, and cultural community change by inviting new voices to the table so we can identify and bring forward new resources and approach challenging issues and conversations. This page currently highlights information about the Honoring the Dakota Mural Project, which is a process of community engagement, conversation, and education that will be used to create a mural design. Objective:
* Help bridge the communities of Prairie Island and Red Wing.
* Provide a space and a process for healing and improving mental health.
* Educate the community about our shared history. The current collaborative partners who are active in projects furthering these efforts include Prairie Island Tribal Council & Community, City of Red Wing, Goodhue County Health and Human Services, and Red Wing Arts,

Building trust with partnerships.
On September 10th

Trust building activities are grounded and using culturally significant sites as gathering places for dialogue, storytelling, artistic practice, and intercultural learning.

Honoring Dakota Project partnered with Prairie Island Land and Environment and hosted a wild rice (Psin) event.

We had the opportunity to learn how to make our own knocking sticks (čháŋ úŋ kakháŋ" which translates to wood used to knock something down (specially something small).

Community members also participated in harvesting wild rice on canoes, Wakan Tipi Awanyankapi donated and gifted a cotton wood dugout to prairie island community.

Honoring Dakota Project hosted a Mni Sota plates painting event in Winona, Mni Sota.

We had so many creative relatives put their heart into their creations.

One for them to keep and one for them to donate to HDP for an upcoming event.

We are so thankful for the hospitality Winona community embraces us with every time we visit the homelands.

Honoring Dakota Project held two open houses for staff and students at Winona State University this week.

We are so excited to be apart of the Education Community for the upcoming academic year!

After we finished our campus engagements we met up with L&E and RWA to have a visit with our aquatic plant relatives this afternoon.

As we get ready to close out another Honorable Harvesting Season, it comes with deep reflections.

This year we started taking our former Interns that have now graduated and became our Apprentices, to work with us in Winona this summer.

The students that just graduated from Red Wing Public Schools in the class of 2026, was our largest number of Interns.

They were freshmen in high school when HDP started as a program under Red Wing Arts.

For four years we had them under our guidance during cultural teachings and community engagement events.

Now adults, they’re engaged, well spoken and represent Honoring Dakota Project beautifully.

To our ROCKSTAR youth group, HDP is so blessed to be apart of your world and you all apart of ours!!
