November 23 - 26, 2006
 In
September, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American
Indian’s Film and Video Center (FVC) invited filmmakers ages
2 to 25 to create two-minute short films that illustrate what
Thanksgiving means to them as Native People.
 Young
media makers were presented with the questions: What are you thankful
for? When are you thankful? How do you express your appreciation?
While Native People have complex feelings toward the Thanksgiving
holiday, the concept of ‘giving thanks’ is at the center
of Native culture. This duality is at the heart of most of the
works.
 Films
were received from as far north as Washington State and as far
south as Arizona. The works, made by artists whose ages range
from 13 to 24, present fresh and engaging perspectives of Native
life.
The programs are free and open to the public on a first-come,
first-served basis in the Rasmuson Theater, First Level. For directions
and entrance information, enter
