This children’s program has two shows: 11-11:30am with a repeat show 12-12:30pm. A dancer, singer, teacher, playwright and filmmaker, Eddie Madril specializes in the dance and culture of the United States Plains Indian tribes from southern Canada, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma. Co-founder of Four Winds Native American Dance Company (1983 – 2009) and member of the Pascua Yaqui tribe of southern Arizona and northern Sonora, Mexico, he’s dedicated to raising awareness of Native cultural riches. For some four decades Madril’s involvement and commitment to Native heritage has provided him with the opportunity to share a wealth of information amongst diverse communities, encouraging appreciation and respect for American Indian dance, music, religion, history, art and sign language. Join Madril for a presentation that enthralls and informs young audiences.
