"Native Lights"

The “Native Lights” Series was first introduced in February 2008 and was released worldwide.

Tom Grayson Colonnese, member of the Santee Sioux Nation and chair of the American Indian Studies department at the University of Washington, was consulted for the creation of this series and states that:"“Bella Sara Native Lights represents Native American stories, images and traditions in a responsible and sensitive manner.' [1]"BellaSara.com was updated with new Bellapedia articles detailing the history and culture of each tribe mentioned and also included traditional Native American folklore that could be unlocked as stories at the bazaar throughout the year.
