The Glendale Main Library will play host to an Indigenous Americans of the Southwest kickoff event from 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 23 at 5959 W. Brown St.

Celebrate Native American History Month at Glendale Public Library as the city embarks on a year-long series of events showcasing the heritage of the Indigenous Americans of the Southwest. This kickoff event will feature the fast-paced, energetic and visually involved dances of Yellow Bird Productions.

In December, Yellow Bird Productions will lead a Dream Catcher design course from 6-7 p.m. Dec. 2 in the Velma Teague Library, 7010 N. 58th Ave.

 Learn to craft an Indigenous American dream catcher, a sacred symbol rooted in the traditions of Native American culture. 

Those new to crafting or looking to refine your skills will receive all the materials and knowledge needed to create a beautiful and meaningful keepsake. Spaces are limited. Register online or call the library at 623-930-3600. 

This project is supported by the Arizona State Library, Archives & Public Records, a division of the Secretary of State, with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

For information on both events, contact Greg K. at gkinder@glendaleaz.com or call him at (623) 930-3441
