SUMMARY:Sasquatch: Ancestral Guardians
DESCRIPTION:“We must walk lightly when we are between worlds with this sacred being.” – Phillip Cash Cash \nIndigenous peoples have long been in relationship with and shared stories about sacred forest protectors\, often called Sasquatch and Bigfoot. The works in this exhibition are made by Indigenous artists and honor generations of spiritual practices\, storytelling\, and tradition. Leave your preconceived notions behind and immerse yourself\, not in the question of if Sasquatch exists\, but rather\, how are we existing with and honoring this non-human other. \nThis exhibition has been extended to January 31\, 2026\, at the Discovery Museum. \nCurated to align with the mission of World Forestry Center\, this exhibition was created in collaboration with these Indigenous artists and the High Desert Museum in Bend\, Oregon\, which featured the exhibition Sensing Sasquatch in 2024. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe exhibition is advised by and consists of original artwork by: Phillip Cash Cash\, Ph.D. (Nez Perce\, Cayuse)\, HollyAnna CougarTracks DeCoteau Littlebull (Yakama\, Nez Perce\, Cayuse\, Cree)\, Charlene “Tillie” Dimmick (Warm Springs)\, Frank Buffalo Hyde (Nez Perce\, Onondaga) and Rocky LaRock (Salish)\, Greg Archuleta (Grand Ronde). \nLearn more about the exhibit here.

SUMMARY:Say Hey! With Partners in Diversity
DESCRIPTION:We are collaborating with Partners in Diversity for their next Say Hey! event. \nSay Hey! is the largest multi-cultural networking event in Oregon and southwest Washington. Each quarter\, Partners in Diversity connects local businesses and community members with professionals of color who recently relocated to Oregon or southwest Washington. Recently relocated professionals of color (aka Honorees) are introduced during a special portion of the program. We help build community\, deepen connections and create an environment where everyone is welcomed. Employers can leverage this program as an extension to your onboarding experiences for new staff of color. A study on workforce retention commissioned by Partners in Diversity and released in 2020 showed that having a strong\, supportive community is an important element in retaining professionals of color in Oregon and southwest Washington. Say Hey! is free and open to professionals of color and allies. \nPlease note this is a 21+ event.

SUMMARY:Forest Pub - Sasquatch: Indigenous Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Tickets available here!\nJoin World Forestry Center and OPB for a special film screening and conversation exploring Indigenous perspectives on Sasquatch. \nIn “Guardian of the Land\,” a new film for OPB’s documentary series “Oregon Experience\,” director LaRonn Katchia and community voices from the Nch'i-Wána (Columbia River) region share how Pacific Northwest tribes know Sasquatch not as a monster\, but as a protector\, a spiritual being that walks between the seen and unseen. The film challenges mainstream portrayals and uplifts a deeper Indigenous understanding of the world’s most famous cryptid. \nWhile OPB's film was being created\, a simultaneous Indigenous-led Sasquatch art exhibition was curated first at the High Desert Museum (Sensing Sasquatch\, 2024) and then reimagined for World Forestry Center (Sasquatch: Ancestral Guardians\, 2025-26). \nAfter the 30-minute film screening\, stay for a rich conversation with film producer LaRonn Katchia (Warm Springs/Wasco/Paiute) and Phillip Cash Cash (Nez Perce/Cayuse)\, lead advisor to both art exhibitions and featured voice in the film. Moderated by Stephanie Stewart Bailey\, exhibition curator for Sasquatch: Ancestral Guardians\, the discussion will connect themes from the film with World Forestry Center's current exhibition\, offering audiences a chance to explore how cultural stories shape our relationships with the land and its guardians.
