In addition, you’ll find Colorado’s largest authentic and juried American Indian art show, featuring nationally acclaimed artists in a variety of mediums including pottery, sculpture and jewelry.
Guests are invited to meet and engage with prominent members of American Indian nations and learn about their history and daily lives in the modern age. Many nations rely on oral histories to stay connected to their ancestors and attendees young and old are invited to revel in storytelling in The Fort’s courtyard.
Demonstrations by Nature’s Educators involving live hawks and eagles will reveal why these birds of prey are so important to American Indian culture, and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science and History Colorado will have exhibits for exploration.
A Kids’ Corner, complete with various art projects and crafts, gives the young (and young at heart) an opportunity for hands-on learning.
Nationally acclaimed and award-winning American Indian artists will demonstrate their work in a juried show, displaying a variety of mediums from jewelry and beadwork to pottery, watercolor, wood carving and more.
