The Tongva/Gabrieleno people are the Native people in the LA basin and have been here since time immemorial. As a guest institution on Tongva land, we make kuuyam nahwá'a, a recurring guest exchange, to the Tongva Taraxat Paxaavxa Conservancy, the Tongva-led org who received the first return of land back to Tongva people. We invite you to go to Tongva.Land and join us in making kuuyam nahwá'a to the Tongva Conservancy who is providing a space to create community and practice ceremony, housing Gabrieleno/Tongva people, and rematriating the land.
