  • Artist: Erin Tail (Enrolled Northern Cheyenne, also Oglala Lakota & Western-band Cherokee)

Erin Tail is a young Lakota, Northern Cheyenne & ᏣᎳᎩ youth living on the Puyallup Tribe’s ancestral homelands. They are a student mental health counselor, with strong interest in public health and advocacy work. A lot of Erin’s spare time is filled with beadwork, writing, drawing, going to traditional Lakota ceremonies, enjoying books, and being in community. Their biggest dream is to combine traditional healing and artistic practices with modern modalities of counseling and therapy.
