Candyce Testa is a Pequot woman who is grateful for the ability to live within, and learn from, the homelands and people of her ancestors. She is an artisan of traditional handmade items of deerhide, cornhusks, and beads. She is new to playwriting and is thankful for the opportunity to use this powerful platform to share her voice, viewpoint, cosmovision and opinions. The importance of Indigenous Peoples’ having full access to their traditional homelands to nourish their bodies, minds and Spirits, underscores all her work. She is honored to spend her days organizing Art Bazaars for the Indigenous people who work in partnership with Cultural Survival, a non-profit organization that advocates for the rights and self-determination of Indigenous Peoples, everywhere.
