Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Trickster's mission is to increase the visibility of Native American traditions, honor veteran contributions, and advance contemporary cultural arts through community engagement and education.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Trickster Art Gallery's mission is to increase the visibility of Native American traditions, honor veteran contributions, and advance contemporary cultural arts through community engagement and education.

  • Native American Veterans Programs - The Gallery and the Native culture have a deep respect for veterans, especially of Native American origin. The Gallery is dedicated to educating the population about the role that Native veterans have played in the United States' military history and is working to increase their recognition. The Chicago area has the third largest off-reservation native population in the United States, with over 104,000 self-identified people in Illinois of Native descent. Since native people make up the largest percentage of any race volunteering for military service, it is important for them to be recognized and given the respect they deserve within the community.

    Expenses $503,876

  • Art Gallery and Exhibitions - The Gallery teaches dramatically the culture of modern American Indians. Contemporary American Indian art becomes the medium bringing the American Indian culture to life, using present-day artistic venues. The Gallery is multi-cultural and highlights artistic contributions of other-Americans as well those of American Indians. Through rotating exhibits of paintings, sculpture, pottery, workshops on dance and music and other visual media, the Gallery creates mutual cultural awareness through an artistic exchange. In bringing together present-day art from the two cultures, living traditions emerge showing how much exists in common between American Indians and other Americans.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
