Yes, imagineNATIVE hosts multiple databases to connect with Indigenous creatives!
The Artist Spotlight Directory is a curated platform to highlight the legacy of prominent Indigenous artists who have played a significant role in imagineNATIVE’s history. The platform showcases select artists’ work which they have presented at imagineNATIVE. All profiles are curated by imagineNATIVE in partnership with the artists featured.
Kin Theory is an Indigenous media maker database where Indigenous artists can self-populate and manage their own profiles to connect with other artists and both Indigenous and non-Indigenous industry professionals. Indigenous artists are invited to create profiles on Kin Theory to showcase their work, and industry professionals (programmers, funders, etc) are welcome to browse the database of Indigenous creators. Please note: Kin Theory creators self-identify as Indigenous and Kin Theory and imagineNATIVE do not endorse or represent anyone on the site.
