Dre is a Two Spirit Multicultural Díné (Navajo) artist, curator, educator and activist.  They hold a B.A. in Native American Studies from the University of Montana.  Dre’s history with the Jeanette Rankin Peace Center runs deep.  They served on our Coordinating Council for 6 years and were on the Leadership Team for 2 of those years.  Dre also spearheaded the JRPC Indigenous Arts and Education committee and produced 3 to 4 comprehensive programs per year as part of that effort.

While giving generously of their time, they also curated Art shows for the Zootown Arts Community Center, the Western Montana Fair and the Montana Repertory on the University of Montana campus. They worked on their own art and participated in multiple art shows and markets, while they worked several jobs to support and participate in JRPC non-profit work. 

Dre brings deep commitment and passion to their role at JRPC as the Program Coordinator for the Indigen-Unity.  Dre’s voice is unique, needed, and appreciated and JRPC is honored that they are coordinating this program.
