About this event
This performance is part of our Education on Stage/Field Trip Series and is recommended for children in PreK-Grade 5 . Renowned storyteller and cultural educator Dovie Thomason presents a special on-stage educational performance celebrating Native American Heritage Month. As we prepare for Thanksgiving, Stories of Thanks shares the tales of many cultures explaining the original “whys” of the world, as science does now. The imagery and values in the stories from Dovie’s Native ancestry pair the “whys” of science with the very contemporary “hows” of living in balance on our shared Earth. This enriching experience supports learning through the arts while inspiring students to listen deeply, celebrate heritage, and appreciate the power of stories passed down through generations. Curriculum Connections: History; Social Studies; Native American Heritage Month; Storytelling. CLICK HERE to view a Study Guide from Dovie Thomason.
