The performers of Native Trails represent a variety of First Nations from across North America. In addition to Derrick Suwaima Davis (Hopi/Choctaw), the artistic director of Native Trails, this year's cast includes: Tony Duncan (San Carlos Apache, Arikara/Hidatsa/Mandan), Violet Duncan (Northern Cree), Toby Jose (Akimel Au-Authm), Ryon Polequaptewa (Hopi), Eldred Matt (San Carlos Apache/Colville Confederated Tribes), Yolanda Tsosie (Diné) and Lisa Little Iron (Lakota).
Tribal Royalty:
In recent years, Native American communities have formed pageant committees to select cultural ambassadors to represent their individual Nations. These ambassadors hold titles of royalty, and will be in attendance at Native Trails on selected Saturdays.
Arts & Crafts:
Native American artisans, jewelry makers and tribal elders from around the state will showcase and sell their work throughout the season. Traditional foods also will be available for sale at every performance, so come enjoy lunch and Native Trails! |
