Dates Available
I am available throughout the year. I work year-round and live in Greenfield Center, so no distance travel is needed. Usually need to hear at least a month in advance for bookings.
Program Theme
Northeastern Native American cultures, histories and traditions through my writing and storytelling or workshop programs in which students write their own poems and stories and/or do their own storytelling. Also, themes of respect for one’s self and others, conflict resolution, and character development are built into all of my presentations.
Program Description
My school visits vary depending on what the sponsor needs. For school programs, I usually incorporate storytelling, Native American music, and some discussion of my work. Programs are geared to grade level and include Q&A at the end to a greater or lesser degree depending on grade level. Workshops to generate writing and/or storytelling are structured for maximum student participation. For adult audiences, I again can offer a variety of programs, from lectures to musical and/or storytelling concerts. Further, I offer programs in the history and stories of the Adirondacks, tall tales, stories of the days of logging, etc.
