Sarah LittleRedfeather Kalmanson (Ogichdaakwe Miskwaa-ens Migiziwigwan), owner and designer.

With over a decade dedicated to Honor the Earth as marketing director, I have honed a unique blend of skills spanning merchandise commerce, full-package graphic design, marketing, social media, web development, and media creation. My journey took a purposeful detour as a water protector, prioritizing this vital work over my design ventures, LittleRedfeather Design and We Live Native Collection. Throughout my impactful roles as executive director, co-creative curator, marketing director, and co-founder of the Giiwedinong Museum, I have consistently demonstrated the value of versatility and the strength that comes from wearing many hats. This path has deepened my commitment to meaningful storytelling, community-driven initiatives, and the power of authentic representation.

As a tribal descendant of the White Earth Anishinaabe, my mother and grandmother are enrolled tribal members and direct family lineage to Lac Courte Oreilles. I have over 10 years of experience in the arts and cultural sector, as well as movement-based nonprofit organizations. With over 20 years of experience in graphics, marketing, media, business development, management, and business planning, I am well-equipped and eager to acquire the knowledge necessary to ensure your success.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated exceptional leadership skills by spearheading multiple projects that have gained widespread acclaim and admiration in the industry. My experience in design, graphic arts, marketing, and events has helped propel the museum forward, even with limited resources, resulting in significant recognition. My innovative approach to marketing and graphic design has been described as groundbreaking, showcasing a creative exploitation of new ideas.

I believe in the power of both individual and collective passion, where unique branding empowers excellence. While good is good, I prioritize excellence, growth, and development as essential factors for staying at the top of the game and achieving success.

What I do

Image, Design, & Brand ''Image is not one thing; it's everything''  The image you project speaks volumes about you. However, it must also address the needs of your target audience. LittleRedfeather™ Design creates marketing materials with your target in mind: what will appeal to them (not just what we think is cool).

Whether your audience is large or small, LittleRedfeather™ Design is more than ready to captivate them with compelling concepts.

Innovative Marketing & Graphic Design

At LittleRedfeather Design, we believe in the transformative power of innovative and creative branding. Our passion for unique ideas motivates us to help you achieve excellence. While being good is satisfactory, we strive for excellence, growth, and development, which are essential for remaining at the forefront of success.

Image, Design & Brand

"Image is not just one thing; it's everything." The image you project speaks volumes about you, and it must resonate with your target audience and their needs. LittleRedfeather™ Design creates marketing materials specifically tailored to appeal to your audience, focusing on what they find compelling rather than solely what we believe is trendy.

I specialize in illustration design and branding, crafting one-of-a-kind pieces that beautifully embody your vision. Through a comprehensive and thoughtful creative process, I draw inspiration from various sources to ensure that each design not only meets your expectations but also tells a compelling story.

No matter who your audience is, LittleRedfeather™ Design is prepared to captivate them with engaging concepts.
