Creator’s Game Culture (Lacrosse) Camp
2026-06-20 08:00 - 17:00 | Daybreak Star Indian Cultural Center, 5011 Bernie Whitebear Way, Seattle, WA, 98199, United States
We are incredibly excited to officially open our session registration for our first ever Creator’s Game Culture Camp at Daybreak Star. Sign-up here: CREATOR’S GAME CULTURE CAMP REGISTRATION

Creator’s Game Culture Camp is built around a simple idea: using the Creator’s Game to connect Native youth to culture, community, creativity, movement, and Indigenous teachings in a real and hands-on way.

Throughout the day, youth will have the opportunity to choose workshops and learn directly from incredible Native artists, makers, culture bearers, educators, and community leaders.

Participants will be able to engage in:
Traditional & Modern Lacrosse @pnwnativelax
Choctaw Stickball @olivia_hinak_bitepuli
Drum Making @rockperkins
Ribbon Skirt/Shirt Making @alexmaxine
Cedar Bracelet Making (announcing soon)
Medicine Wheel Paddle Necklaces @desireerose.1983
Medicine Bag Making (announcing soon)
Bison Hide Processing @_.qbc._
Blue Corn Food Sovereignty @soon.ill.be.soil

Every workshop is being led by community educators who are carrying forward living traditions and teachings from their own communities.

This is more than a camp. It is a space for Native youth to gather, create, move, learn, laugh, and connect through the Creator’s Game.

Swipe through to see the classes, workshops, and educators who are helping bring this vision to life. If you are interested in volunteering please DM us.

Registration is now live at the link in our bio. Participants will select their workshops during registration, and space in some classes is limited.

Please help us spread the word. This one means a lot to us. It is 100 % free for Native youth and families.
