Abenaki Story Telling & Music

Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Frisco Native American Museum by…..
joining Abenaki Elder Francine Jones* for the second year in a row! A gifted storyteller and musician, Francine will be sharing with everyone traditional teaching stories and music that promises to be a treat for all ages.
For example, did you know there’s a song to ward off mosquitoes? Get a chance to learn it and sing along!
Did you ever wonder why dogs are so loyal and called “Man’s best friend” ? Hear the exciting story for yourself!
Children attending will get to participate in a Feather Dance!
Francine will also have a table of traditional items with adults to do a Q&A and children to explore. Hear about how the Abenaki people used certain furs or guess what use an unfamiliar item you see has.
Event is FREE with museum admission
*Francine is an advocate for maintaining and protecting the Abenaki language and culture, member of the Vermont Abenaki Artists Association, and on the Board for the Abenaki Arts & Education Center.
