Thoughts from the Conference Chairperson/Founder
Siyo! Welcome to our 2nd annual conference website!
I’m Denise Alley.
Last year we had a great day with local Cherokee women and few from Tulsa and the Hominey area.
Come be a part of a great day tailored just for you!
If you’re reading this, you already feel the inspired call to want to be with other women who are managing to keep things going, working and juggling family, or maybe to those who are retired and just want to feel connected and supported, (and everything in between.)
This one-day conference is created with you in mind – a culturally inspired day to encourage and reinforce your well-being as a woman.
By attending you will:
1. Strengthen your mental and emotional well-being. Learn a few simple yet powerful tools to increase inner peace.
2. Build a sense of community, and foster friendships that support each other and create a sense of belonging and self-worth.
3. Enhance personal growth through speakers, and interaction with others.
4. Encourage self-care, which is essential for maintaining well-being, yet as women we sometimes struggle to prioritize it amidst our busy lives. Simple energetic tools will be taught other resources and information will be available.
5. Promote and preserve Native culture in your life, by sharing and interacting with other women and learning some Cherokee words.
Give yourself one transformative day to immerse in your divine identity and affirm your innate self-worth.
Purchase your tickets now, bring a friend!

Artist: Virginia Stroud
I first saw Virginia's art work when I was speaking in Cherokee, NC back in the late 90's- early 2000. I saw a big mural hanging in the lobby of the hotel I was staying at, it was a scene with a community of Native people out in nature. I loved it! I proceeded to walk to the restaurant to eat dinner, when I struck up a conversation with the manager about the painting. He said he had met and visited with the artist Virginia several times, that she was delightful and that she was Cherokee from Oklahoma.
I ordered my dinner and the manager came over and proceeded to tell me that Harrison Ford (the actor) had been there to eat in the restaurant as well, while filming the move, "The Fugitive." The train wreck scene was filmed in the Cherokee hills, and he said the train was still down in the gulley. I was fascinated.
Through the years, I made it a point to look for Virginia's artwork and have purchased several prints. I always wanted to meet her, not knowing she actually lived in Tahlequah.
Fast forward, my mother Mary Mead who presently lives in Go Ye Village, retirement center said she knew Virginia's sister, who also lives in Go Ye Village and that they had had lunch with Virginia. Again, I was thrilled that she was so close and that I could finally possibly meet her. I got to briefly say hello to her and express my deep appreciation .
Thank you Virginia for sharing with us all, your talent and spirit through your art work. We love you. We honor you.

Virginia Stroud passed December 2024. She will be greatly missed. Virginia was Cherokee-Muscogee Creek and was an enrolled member. She attended Muskogee High, Bacone College, and University of Oklahoma. She was a prolific painter and illustrator. She was a former Miss Cherokee, Miss National Congress of American Indians, Miss Indian America, was Artist of the year for Indian Arts & Crafts Association, and received the Cherokee Medal of Honor in 2000.
In 1969 as Miss Cherokee, and Miss National Congress of American Indians and later Miss American XVII. She wanted to represent her tribe in a traditional outfit. A committee of Cherokee women, appointed by Chief W.W. Keeler designed a dress based on a hundred year old Cherokee dressed owned by a Cherokee lady, Wynona Day. Elizabeth Higgins (Cherokee Nation) sewed the first tear dress for Stroud. Today, many Cherokee Nation women wear the tear dress.
I'd like to imagine Virginia painting among the clouds with all the great artists watching over us a Native women cheering us on!
We love and honor Virginia for her talent, creativity and spirit. that lives on in her art work.
