She is the Director of the Wakan Tipi Center &amp; Executive Director of the Lower Phalen Creek project, which is a Native-led environmental conservation nonprofit on the East Side of St. Paul. Maggie tells us about the reclamation of a Dakota sacred area, Wakan Tipi, and the plans for a community gathering and ceremony space nearby. The Wakan Tipi cave is within the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary, just east of downtown St. Paul. The project seeks to preserve the space and restore and honor the purpose of the sacred site for the future. Maggie has worked in education, environmental justice, cultural healing, and resiliency which lead her to become the Executive Director of the Lower Phalen Creek project.
