SUMMARY:STORY TIME WITH UŊČÍ & LALÁ
DESCRIPTION:🗓️ June 16 | 🕥 10:30 AM | 📍 Museum Bookstore | 🎟️ Free Admission \nJoin us for another special Story Time with Uŋčí & Lalá as we share All the Stars in the Sky by Art Coulson\, illustrated by Winona Nelson.  Published by Simon & Schuster. \nIn this thoughtful and heartwarming story\, young Clay asks his elisi (grandmother) to help him become “Star of the Week” at school. Instead of giving the answer he expects\, she teaches him an important lesson: no one person is more important than their family or community. Clay begins to wonder where he fits in—and discovers that everyone has value and an important role to play. \nWith beautiful artwork inspired by traditional beadwork\, All the Stars in the Sky explores themes of community\, responsibility\, and belonging through an Indigenous perspective. It reminds readers that while each of us shines in our own way\, we are brightest when we shine together. \nPerfect for all ages—especially elementary-aged children! No registration is required—just come ready for a fun and meaningful learning experience\, followed by fun cultural activities.
