Cherokee Days to be celebrated at National Museum of the American Indian: April 10 – 12
WASHINGTON – When “Cherokee Days” begins April 10 at the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C., people from around the world will also be able to enjoy the experience.
There will be two full days of live webcasts and a plethora of information shared on Cherokee Nation’s social media accounts.
“By partnering with the Smithsonian to stream the sessions on Cherokee history, genealogy and culture, we open the experience of Cherokee Days to a much broader audience,” said Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Bill John Baker. “We encourage everyone interested to log on and participate in this unique gathering of tribal historians, artisans and cultural experts. The information collectively shared by the three tribes will be educational as well as entertaining. It’s important we make this experience accessible to the world.”
On April 10, there will be traditional Cherokee stories told by Robert Lewis, flute performances by Cherokee National Treasure Tommy Wildcat, traditional dances and performances by the Cherokee National Youth Choir.
