FRIDAY NIGHT
OPENING CEREMONEY

Waking Spirit” – Performed by SoulVoice

Through the art of indigenous ritual and performance we set the intention to create a gateway that may allow us access and exploration into the depths of connection. Connection to self, each other, the canyon of guadalupe, and mother earth herself. A performance honoring native American traditions to experience the intrinsic connection to all of life that the tribes of our ancestors called spirit. We come to celebrate through performance to honor the waking spirit within us all.

Hoop Dance is a new and exciting form of expression.
