Hello Everyone!
The Hopi festival is well on it's way with various dances such as; the Clown dance, the Palhikmana dance and the Konina dance. The children are quite entertaining in their clown outfits performing their dance, you can also see them still dressed up running around the museum. Don't miss out on the beautiful headdresses and garments worn in these dances, it is truly a cultural experience. We also have traditional music performances by Donald Dawahongnewa and Tiffany Bahnimptewa. On a different note, (pun intended) we have a musical performance by Casper and the 602 Band, which primarily Reggae. If you're interested in finding out more about the Hopi tribe and their culture, there are various talks on Pottery, the language and the Hopi way of life.
If you're not interested yet, don't miss out on the food! We have the traditional Piiki bread that is made from blue corn. We have delicious fry bread that most everyone knows and loves. Various food vendors have lined themselves up in the front parking lot, ready to serve visitors (hopefully, such as yourselves)!
Artists have booths up all around the museum selling amazing pieces! The Hopi are incredibly friendly people and great conversationalists, so come out and meet them! Anything from painting to carving and sculpting to glass blowing and jewelry! You have to head on out and see it for yourselves on the last day of the Hopi festival!
Best,
Kiran
