SUMMARY:Grounded: Creating with Land in Contemporary Native American Art
DESCRIPTION:Can we think of a 21st century Arizona through expressions of place inherent in Arizona’s Indigenous arts? In this presentation\, I focus on the representation of place that Indigenous artists in Arizona are making in their art. From jewelry\, to weaving\, to photography\, the lived landscape features prominently in Indigenous art. These expressions signify place\, culture\, tradition\, and national aspirations. As a Diné jeweler with decades of experience in Native art spaces\, I will demonstrate how the stones and materials connect us to our national homelands in Diné bikeyah and are also a representation of longstanding trade routes between tribes in the southwest. I will show how corn – represented in culture and art – is also a product of trade\, and how Diné rugs are intimately linked to the land\, including the wool and dye that comprise it. These are all examples of placemaking in Native Arizona. Ultimately\, Native space is not limited to today’s boundaries but are expressions of kinship and reciprocity to the land and non-human entities that also inhabit it. Indigenous art in Arizona confounds our understanding of Arizona. Art is not just a reflection of what is there\, but an imagined sense of what is possible. \n  \nNanibaa Beck is a 2nd generation Dine’ (Navajo) jeweler. Since 2013\, her work reflects Native creative expressions and the growth of an Dine’ ‘Asdzaa (Navajo woman) as a designer and maker. Being intricately connected to the creative process at an early age motivated Beck to become more knowledgeable about the multifaceted areas surrounding Native American Art. Her anthropology background includes work and fellowships with renowned museums\, including the Heard Museum\, the National Museum of the American Indian\, the Peabody Essex Museum and the Field Museum.

SUMMARY:The Gift of Hunger and Turkey in Diné Foodways
DESCRIPTION:Stories of Diné food traditions\, both before and after first contact\, reveal deep connections between sustenance\, survival\, and spirit. These include the story of the Nayee’ (monster) hunger and how Turkey saved the precious agricultural seeds. Today\, emerging Diné foodways seek to revive these enduring traditions—resurging what has faded\, while striving to elevate and innovate within the global culinary landscape. Through storytelling and food\, join Mario on this journey of Diné food traditions. \nNote: This presentation will include soup for the audience to enjoy as part of the experience. Please make sure this is okay for your site to have. The presentation can be done without it as well. \n  \nChef Renetto-Mario Etsitty was born on the Navajo Reservation and grew up under the tutelage of his Grandparents. Cooking in his Grandmother’s chuckwagon\, and learning ancestral practices from his Grandfather\, who taught young Mario the techniques to preserve his traditional (Diné) foodways. For Chef Mario\, food always reconnects back to understanding and respecting sacred traditions. His pumpkin tamales showcase two sacred plants\, squash and corn. Which make up the 4 sacred plants\, Corn\, Beans\, Squash\, and Tabacco. When Chef Mario cooks\, his culinary and storytelling abilities allow him to preserve and honor his Diné heritage. Etsitty is the owner of “The REZ”\, an Urban Eatery that caters and provides pop up frybread stands that explore traditional and plant base foods based on the goal of sustainable food practices.

SUMMARY:(Mother) Road to the Stars: Rt 66 and its Space Heritage
DESCRIPTION:TOPIC \nRoute 66 is one of the most storied roadways in North America\, known for its roadside diners\, historic hotels and kitschy attractions. But it also boasts an extraordinary space heritage; along its course lies the birthplaces of space pioneers\, centers of space exploration and discovery\, training grounds for Moon-bound astronauts\, the best-preserved asteroid impact site in the world\, site of a famous UFO sighting\, and museums celebrating these cosmic connections. In honor of the upcoming centennial of Route 66\, Lowell Observatory Historian Kevin Schindler will lead a virtual trip along the Mother Road and explore this space heritage. \nThis program is cohosted by the Marana Visitor Information Center/Chamber of Commerce.\n \nBIO \nKevin Schindler is the historian at Lowell Observatory\, where he has worked for 28 years as an active member of the Flagstaff history and science communities. Schindler has given more than 1\,000 presentations and written more than 600 magazine and newspaper articles on subjects ranging from local history and astronomy to baseball and the Lincoln Memorial\, and contributes a bi-weekly astronomy column\, “View from Mars Hill”\, for the Arizona Daily Sun newspaper. Schindler has written nine books\, including Historic Tales of Flagstaff (written with Mike Kitt). Fun fact: Kevin has both a fossil crab and asteroid named after him.

SUMMARY:Living the Mesquite Life
DESCRIPTION:TOPIC \nFrom birth to death\, the mesquite tree\, here in southwest\, is an integral part of life for many who call the desert home. The mesquite tree is just one of many holistic materials\, elements of our natural environment\, that are vital to sustaining Indigenous culture and practices. We will explore how we are related to the mesquite tree from when we begin life\, to maintaining the lifestyle of organics\, until death when we go. \nNote: This presentation will include a hands-on activity with organic materials and commercial clay for a better understanding of the mesquite tree’s basic utilitarian usage. This presentation can also be done without the hands-on activity. \n  \nThis program is co-hosted with the Chandler-Gilbert Community College. \n  \nBIO \nYolanda Hart Stevens is an enrolled member of the Gila River Indian Community\, Pee-Posh/Quechan\, and currently resides in the village of Komatke\, AZ. Hart Stevens is a successful artist and community activist\, performing at notable events such as Super Bowl XLII\, The National Congress of the American Indian\, and serving in highly-regarded positions such as the Smithsonian Institution American Community Scholar and a member of the Kennedy Center for Arts and Education. As an artist in residence at the Heard Museum in Phoenix\, and as a teacher of beadwork\, she has developed programs to promote a clearer understanding of the people of the Southwest through their history\, clothing\, and decoration. She teaches a variety of beading techniques\, including lazy stitch\, edging and peyote stitch at various locals throughout the valley. Hart Stevens is passionate about maintaining a dialogue with her elders\, contributing her skill of beadwork\, and sharing the given knowledge with her family and young people.
