In her workshop, titled "Indigenization of the Arts," Asta Mitkijá Balto engages with participants to explore the significance of Sámi culture for non-indigenous individuals who express themselves through art. She initiates the workshop by providing a comprehensive overview of the circumstances surrounding the indigenous Sámi people in Norway, with particular emphasis on Sámi art and its pivotal role in preserving Sámi society. The workshop uses the "café method", an informal group work technique that replicates the welcoming atmosphere of a café. In this setting, fundamental questions about personal challenges, life circumstances and the possibilities for creating art are discussed and reflected upon.
