MEET CALIE HUDSON! 2024 GCS GRADUATE.
“I had the pleasure of working with Calie Hudson last February. She came in and worked diligently on her whole outfit for graduation. Calie knew that getting her outfit done was time sensitive and came in every chance she could between school and track meets. A first time student who never sewed or did beadwork proved it can be done. I am so proud of her and how beautiful her outfit turned out. Jagoh Calie! Congrats on all of your accomplishments.” -Darice Sampson
MEET CLINT JONES! He is our very first SULLY SPOTLIGHT recognition! He has spent the time to create his own pieces here at our center. Darice has helped many community members & wants to highlight their work. “Clint is an awesome student who has made 3 ribbon shirts and a ribbon skirt. He has gifted 3 of those pieces. Clint’s sewing skills keep getting better with each piece he makes. I admire who Clint has become in our community and longhouse. He is always ready to help with our youth. Jagoh Clint.” -Darice Sampson
