The 36th Annual California Conference on American Indian Education is approaching quickly and, once again, we wish to showcase the writings of American Indian students from our state in a small booklet (chapbook) available to each participant who attends the conference. We are requesting poetry, short stories, and photography from all K-12 American Indian youth who reside in California. If possible, we would prefer black and white photographs but will accept color.
All submissions should address the conference theme “Native Roots: Past, Present, and Future.” Photographs and writings that demonstrate the power of intergenerational education, whether formal or cultural, are especially welcome.
Please inform your youth about their opportunity to have their work published and encourage them to submit their writings to: American Indian Education Program 1919 B Street, Marysville, CA 95901 Phone: 530-749-6196 • Fax: 530-741-7840
Copyright will remain with the authors. Works submitted for publication will not be returned, therefore, please send copies only. Each youth who is published will receive two free chapbooks from the Conference Planning Committee. All works should be submitted for review by Friday, February 15, 2013.
Along with each submission, please include the following information: Student Name • Tribal Affiliation Age of Student • Phone Number Name and address of sponsoring organization (i.e., Title VII, IEC, or school)
We are looking forward to publishing the writings and photographs of our American Indian youth. If you have any questions, please contact Pat Bennett at 530-749-6196.Thank you, The 36th Annual California Conference on American Indian Education Committee
