"Blue Jay Brings Back the Moon": A Celebration of the Diversity of Native Arts and Culture
Blue Jay, Northwest Coast and Salish tribes' trickster character, who through his antics brings us laughter, pranks, and yes, lessons. In this traditional story, the cunning Blue Jay ventures out to bring Snoqual the Moon, Transformer (who had been kidnapped by the Dog Salmon people and taken to the Sky world) back to earth so he could strengthen culture for the humans to come.
Join Tierra Madre Fund, a Seattle-based Native nonprofit organization as they fill the evening with Northwest Native talent, festivities and a local, sustainable meal featuring Native foods. Enjoy music, performance, visual and media arts--traditional and contemporary, emerging to master.
