Festival of Alaska Native Arts 2

The Native people were performing dances and songs representing their cultures.  Below is a Yup'ik dancer.  I think I posted these photos a few years ago but some of you probably haven't seen them before.

love seeing the little girl imitating the dancer.

Festival of Native Arts

provides cultural education and sharing through traditional Native dance, music, and arts. The Festival continues the University of Alaska Fairbanks student-led tradition that began in 1973 of bringing together artists, performers, and performance groups in a celebration of Native cultures.
