Native people use the oral tradition of storytelling to teach
social values and knowledge of the past. Traditionally, elders
pass on lessons of wisdom, history, and origins. Discover how
Native people today are exploring new ways to tell their stories,
through mediums of film, dance, and visual art.
Stories can come to life in many ways. String figures and designs
tell stories, too. Hear a story and then practice making string
figures so you can tell your own story, or make a flipbook designed
by Native artists.
