Frequently Asked Questions
Forge is a Native-led non-profit organization whose mandate is to cultivate and advance Indigenous leadership in arts and culture.
Forge Project is located on the unceded homelands of the Moh-He-Con-Nuck in the Mahicannituck (Hudson River) Valley, in New York state.
Forge is located near the village of Taghkanic in New York State. Forge’s exact address and driving directions are provided once a visit is confirmed. Please note: Forge Project is only accessible by car.
Forge Project is not currently fully ADA accessible, but the first floor of the main building is accessible to those capable of using or being assisted up a ramp and has a paved ADA accessible parking space.

Forge Project charges a fee for site visits, inclusive of the time, expertise, and hosting shared as well as commitment to wealth redistribution as a core value. As such, Forge equally splits all site visit fees with Stockbridge-Munsee Community toward building their new Cultural Center as a tangible recognition of our responsibility to Moh-He-Con-Nuck peoples and homelands.
Forge Project recommends additional direct payments in the amount of your choosing to the Cultural Affairs Department at the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We hope that others in the Mahicannituck (Hudson river) Valley and beyond will consider adopting actionable ways of financially redressing the displacement of Native peoples and ongoing dispossession from their homelands.
