Enjoy cultural performances including music, dance and storytelling, and family art-making activities while eating fry bread and other food from local vendors.
New this year: Turtle Island, a remarkable performance by eight dancers from the Seneca Nation who present the Haudenosaunee creation story of Skywoman. During the group’s weekend performances, a large turtle inflatable balloon, appears above the dancers onstage as the story unfolds.
