Description:

We will all be working towards the creation of a Four Directions Virtual Culture Box that will be shared on the Internet and via CD ROM. The Virtual Culture Box is our "Organizing Concept" or "Theme" and is called

Celebrating Cultural Connections

Participants will select one or more areas or "strands" to work in during SI '99. Each strand will have an organizing meeting early in the week at SI '99 to plan the product(s) they are going to produce for the culture box. Each strand has many possible "skills", "tools", or "sessions" that will help the participants in the strand complete their product.
