Majorie Tahbone

Marjorie grew up in Nome, Alaska where she learned how to gather foods from the land and sea. She has been rooted in her culture at an early age and continues to learn and live the traditions of her ancestors. In 2012 she received her Bachelors degree in Alaska Native Studies with an emphasis on Inupiaq language at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Marjorie is currently working on her Masters in Cross-Cultural Studies at UAF.
 
“My goal has been to strengthen our identity and build a foundation that our youth can grow upon.” Marjorie does this by being a language teacher, radio dj, motivational speaker, native games coach, and a emerging traditional tattooist. Marjorie is one of a few traditional tattoo artists who practices the ancient technique of skin-stitching just as her ancestors did generations before her. Marjorie has been tattooing for over a year is the only Inuit traditional tattooist living in Alaska. ​
