The exhibition is supported by Oneida Nation Arts Program (ONAP), Wisconsin Arts Board (WAB) and UW-Green Bay's American Intercultural Center (AIC).

Additionally featured artists include Monisha Alleck, Donald Carufel, Gordon Coons, Yvette Diltz, Peggy Fontenot, Martha Gradolf, John Joe, Tom Jones, Douglas K.
