• Monetary support for the printing of two educational children’s books. These books, created by Myaamia artist Megan Sekulich, are aimed at teaching language to children within the Myaamia community. The MHF hopes that with the monetary support for printing such books, we are helping to facilitate widespread dissemination of these publications. In the past, Miami Tribe of Oklahoma publications have reached thousands of households, and we believe that more publications such as these children’s books, help to solidify a future of culturally and linguistically knowledgeable Myaamiaki ‘Miami People.’

• Taste of the Arts Festival

In August 2025, the MHF sponsored three Myaamia artists at the Taste of the Arts festival in Fort Wayne, Indiana. This event provided an important platform for Myaamia artists to gain recognition for their work, while also educating the broader community about what it means to be Myaamia and the significance of Myaamia art. Additionally, it allowed us to introduce the Tribe to residents of Fort Wayne and Northern Indiana. The festival aligns with our goals of outreach, helping non-Myaamia and non-Native neighbors learn about our presence, culture, and history.

• Eugene Brown Memorial Art Show

  $3750 was donated to the Eugene Brown Memorial Art show at the Myaamia Heritage Museum and Archive. These funds were used in the form of prize money for Myaamia artists who won in their respective categories of art. This contribution, we hope, helps to encourage future growth of the Eugene Brown Memorial Art Show and the continued excellence of Myaamia artists and their productions.

  

• Crete Public Library

  $4000 was donated to the ‘Awakening – A Sacred Story of Contemporary Myaamia Art’ at the Crete (Illinois) Public Library. These funds supported the exhibition and the costs for travel of artists and delivery of various objects of Art. The MHF believes, similar to our support of the Eugene Brown Memorial Art Show, that supporting events that highlight Myaamia revitalization, greatly support our overall goals of supporting cultural and linguistic growth within the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma.
