An award-winning artist and culture bearer, Kelly Looking Horse (Oglala Lakota) shares Lakota stories and makes and performs art through traditional dancing, drumming, singing, leather and wood work, beading, quilling, and painting — to enhance, reinforce, and illustrate the stories.
Kelly founded Lakota Red Nations, a family-owned and operated enterprise specializing in traditional Native arts, crafts, and Oglala Lakota history. He and his wife, Suzie (Pomo of the Robinson Rancheria Band), live in Batesland, South Dakota.
