Indigenous Story Incubator Program

Generating All-Indigenous live productions, media arts and community engagement

INDIGENOUS STORY INCUBATOR PROGRAM (ISIP) brings Native/Indigenous-led and/or facing live and documentary storytelling projects from concept through the creation and production process and then on tour . We partner with the Washington Center for the Performing Arts and other venues across the US who bring financial resources, residency space and technical resources, to create world-class touring productions. We have created five productions to date, three of which have gone onto multi-year national tours that are still touring today. Our flagship project, the live & documentary storytelling series "The Aunties" season one is in post production and we hope to premiere our first feature in 2025. In parallel with productions we connect the touring artists with Indigenous youth and community through responsive outreach through master classes, workshops, artist talks and lecture demonstrations.
