SUMMARY:The Quilt — Owíŋza Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Quilt – Owíŋža exhibit features quilts from 1893 to contemporary that are in the Aktá Lakota Museum’s private collection. \nThese quilts are a testament to the powerful tradition\, aesthetic\, artisanship\, and resiliency of the Lakota culture. When the buffalo was at the center of Lakota life\, beautifully decorated hides\, often with striking circular patterns\, were common. As colonialism brought about the near-extinction of the buffalo\, the Lakota turned to quilt-making to replace many of the functions — both utilitarian and ceremonial — that hides performed. \nThe star quilt held special appeal because of its circular pattern and rhythmic repetition. “Everything the power of the world does is done in a circle\,” said Lakota spiritual leader Black Elk\, expressing the centrality of the circle to Lakota thought. Today the star quilt is often the centerpiece in Lakota celebrations and ceremonies.  The exhibit will be on display through the end of the year. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:STORY TIME WITH UŊČÍ & LALÁThe Raccoon and the Bee Tree
DESCRIPTION:Today our story is The Raccoon and the Bee Tree authored by Charles A. Eastman and Elaine Goodale Eastman; illustrated by Susan Turnbul. \nAbout the story:  This tale is 100 years old and is an American Indian tale. Traditionally told only verbally Charles Eastman decided to put the story into print at his wife’s suggestion. \nThe story follows a raccoon as he wakes and goes hunting for food. He soon gets into a sticky situation as he tangles with a bee’s nest and its honey. This is a delightful tale and is in the form of a fable with a moral at the ending. \nStory Time with Uŋči & Lalá is a free public program that brings American Indian history to life through books read by elders from the local community.  The program is geared toward elementary-age children\, but children young and old are welcome.  Each week features a different story\, and children are invited to participate in a take-home art project or activity following the reading of the story. \nChildren must be accompanied by an adult.Registration is recommended for large groups.Service pets welcome.For more information call 800.798.3452 or email aktalakota@stjo.org
