Formed in Anchorage in 2005 by Se’iga Liimii Marcella Asicksik, this group performs in the sacred Ts’msyen language, Sm’algyax. Their new song, “Na Gatgyed” — meaning “Enduring Strength” — perfectly mirrors the event’s theme, weaving themes of joy, clan pride, and ancestral land through verses inspired by traditional foods and spiritual resilience. With help from a Kitsumkalum language expert, the group poured their collective strength into this gift to the Celebration community — a powerful celebration of identity, endurance, and cultural unity.
