About

Most classes are free; some even provide food. Please come join us for a great time, and in the process, help to strengthen and revitalize the Choctaw traditional arts!

Classes can be requested weekdays 8am-4:30pm within the Choctaw Nation boundaries. Department hosted classes are on hold until further notice due to our transition to the Cultural Center.

Classes

The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma offers a variety of classes in our traditional arts, including archery,  basketery, beading, dress-making, flint knapping, hide tanning,  moccasins, pottery, and textiles.  Far more than more than just craft classes, these courses teach traditional skills and knowledge that can help today's Choctaw people strengthen our Choctaw identity and connections with ancestors, develope physical health, dexterity and self confidence; to be more closely connected with the land around us, and to better express ourselves through our artwork.
