Ysleta Del Sur Pueblo

Ysleta del Sur Pueblo will promote the community’s use of the Department of Tribal Empowerment Library services and strengthen family relationships through traditional cooking and Pueblo painting. The “Honoring Traditional Foods Through a Cookbook” project will develop a cookbook that contains food recipes from the tribal community. The importance of this project is to highlight quality family time spent in the kitchen making traditional dishes. The “Pueblo Paint Night” project will consist of three painting nights hosted at the library. The tribal families will be given the opportunity to come together and be creative while painting a planter or canvas. Staff will also enhance their skills by attending the annual conference of the Association of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums.
