Blackfeet Sundance Paintings by Gary Schildt. The annual
Medicine Lodge ceremony, or Okan, is known to most as the Sundance.
The Blackfeet, of Browning, Montana, celebrate this important
ceremony in July of each year. It is a process of renewal and
reaffirmation, and has been for centuries. It is a day of
thanksgiving for the creator of the world and to the myriad of
spirits that inhabit it. And, it teaches the people their own
history, traditions, and place on the earth. Gary Schildt, a
noted western artist who happens to be Blackfeet, has put together a
series of 42 paintings depicting the most meaningful aspects of the
Sundance ceremony. Learn More >>
