SUMMARY:ívaqîú·í by Subversive Verses
DESCRIPTION:Subversive Verses is stoked to bring you the second gathering in our live poetry reading series. If you haven’t heard of them yet\, they are a collective of California Native women centering the dynamic voices of our community and celebrating the strength of Indigenous emotion through art\, music\, and poetry. \nFor the summer season\, the group will bring you ívaqîú·í. In the Cahuilla language\, ívaqîú·í translates to “becoming strong.” And with everything that the world has been through in these recent months – seeing attacks on collective rights as human beings as well as against collective lands – everyone has had to draw on our strength as Indigenous Peoples. The group invites you to join them as they share\, grow\, and heal together in their traditional summer homelands of Idyllwild. \nLook for updates on insta @subversive_verses \nAudiowild Studios\, 54240 Ridgeview Dr\, Idyllwild-Pine Cove\, CA 92549

SUMMARY:Sierra Mono Museum 53rd Annual Indian Fair Days & Pow Wow
DESCRIPTION:Public welcome\, food & craft vendors\, dance competition! \nA Pow Wow\, or cultural celebration\, as it was called in former times\, is a truly family event growing out of the economic\, social\, and cultural experiences of many Native American tribes. Pow Wows allow people to come together to sing\, dance\, make friends\, renew old friendships\, and enjoy arts and crafts. To many people today\, pow wows have spiritual and religious significance. Some people can trace the word “Pow wow” to the Algonquin language\, saying how the Europeans used the word to refer to a council meeting. \nToday\, Pow Wows have become an inter-tribal event and are a time when older customs and ways are brought to the present day and age. It is more than just Indians dancing and singing. These cultural events help to solidify Indian communities as well as provide an opportunity to teach and learn many traditional customs. Pow wows are held throughout the year\, but mainly in the summertime when participants and spectators have more space to explore and practice singing and dancing. \n  \nFor more information: \nPhone: (559) 877-2115 \nEmail: monomuseum@gmail.com

SUMMARY:The McKinnon Family: From Basketry to Bowls
DESCRIPTION:The McKinnon Family: From Basketry to Bowls\nCurated by Dennis McKinnon\nDennis McKinnon\, Yurok\nHonoring Heritage Through Woodworking \nDennis McKinnon is a proud Yurok Tribe member with Tolowa and Yurok ancestry. He spent his early years along the Klamath River on McKinnon Hill and in Klamath\, Ca.\, Del Norte County. \nIn 1962\, the McKinnons moved to Blue Lake\, Ca.\, Humboldt County. Raised by a Yurok father and a Tolowa/Yurok mother\, Dennis grew up immersed in Native culture and community. \nAfter retiring from a federal career in engineering and computer science\, Dennis returned to woodworking – skills taught by his father. Through segmented woodturning\, he creates wood art inspired by traditional Yurok basket designs. \n“I appreciate the role the McKinnon Family has played in preserving the Yurok cultural identity\, and my hope is that my interpretation of this art and craftmanship contributes to that legacy.” – Dennis McKinnon
