Edge of Morning: Native Voices Speak for the Bears Ears at Camp Eagle Summer School

Native American writers Regina Lopez-Whiteskunk (Ute Mountain Ute) and Jacqueline Keeler (Navajo/Yankton Dakota) will discuss the importance of Native voices to solve community problems and sign copies of their book, Edge of Morning: Native Voices Speak for the Bears Ears, starting at 5:00 pm. Then at 6:00, Camp Eagle students will perform a new musical theater play, “Tricksters of the Animal World”, using cultural beats and masks made by our students to tell Native American animal stories.

Thanks to Elaine Brewster, Utah Arts Council Artist, for working with Camp Eagle students to develop the Native American Children’s Play.

Thanks to Nebo School District Indian Education Program, Torrey House Press, and Utah Humanities for bringing Jacqueline Keeler and Regina Lopez-Whiteskunk to Camp Eagle Summer School.
