Story Telling & Music with Aio Blue Heron Sifu

Indigenous tribes are a diverse group of people with many languages and varied traditions. Historically, most of the stories about us have been told by those outside our communities. The importance of storytelling and art in Native American communities cannot be overstated. For our people it is a method of community care and healing. It is also a powerful way to reclaim our voices, histories and empower our communities.

Muscogee Storyteller and Musician Aio Blue Heron Sifu will be sharing her original music and stories, both old and new. Her works speak of the power of connecting to the natural world and honoring our histories. The relationships Native Americans have with animals, plants, and the world. Native storytelling has always sought to teach and entertain and she carries on this tradition with grace.

We encourage the use of storytelling in our museum through invited presenters, videos of Native stories from the community itself, or through books by Native authors.

We will be featuring this event for two days at both 11AM and 2PM so please double check your date before RSVP-ing!
