Don’t miss this opportunity to hear Diana’s captivating creation stories from her Wintun/Maidu traditions!
Join us on Saturday, November 7 for an afternoon of cultural storytelling and a hands-on tule workshop.
Led by Diana Almendariz and her daughter Christina Almendariz, this will be an opportunity for the public to learn about Wintun/Maidu cultural practices and think critically about the importance of wetland plants such as tule and cattail.
Diana and Christina will introduce the community to the natural and cultural importance of tule, and share their understanding of how tule has been – and can be again – interwoven into our land, waterways and our lives, through stories and touch.
This all-ages event will take place in conjunction with the Good Fire, Living Water: The Gifts of a Marsh Economy exhibit, which is on view at the Davis Arts Center through November 13.
Come visit the exhibit art fair at the 2nd Friday ArtAbout on October 9 and November 13!
This event is partially funded by the City of Davis Arts and Cultural Affairs Program, Davis Arts Center, The Attardo Lab, Pacific Southwest Center of Excellence in Vector Borne Diseases, and Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life.
