Raven Steals the Sun: Native American Eclipse Stories<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perry Ground \u2013 Master Storyteller<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Story-filled presentation will share the beliefs, traditions, and protocols of several Native American tribes related to the Sun and Eclipse events. Tribes across North America have stories to explain these solar events and view them in many different ways \u2013 as a signal or a transformation, as omens, as sacred, and as a celebration.\u00a0 From the Cherokee to the Navajo to the Inuit to the Haudenosaunee (and many other tribes), these traditional legends have been told for hundreds of years and continue to be important to Native American culture today. A brief understanding of each tribe\u2019s location and environment will be shared in addition to the stories.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storyteller Perry Ground will bring the stories to life through vivid descriptions, his rhythmic voice and a VERY active stage presence.\u202f These stories become \u2018interactive\u2019 as Perry is known to include audience members in the stories.  Not just for children, all listeners (young and old), will find this presentation captivating, highly entertaining yet very educational. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
