About this event
"Bear Hope, Be Our Hope" painting by John Halliday.
Thursday, November 5 | 5:30PM
Free Program with RSVP
Explore Native resilience through the personal journey of John Halliday (Coyote), a Muckleshoot artist, speaker, and former tribal leader. After surviving a near-death experience and losing much of his sight, Halliday turned to traditional Native values of endurance and adaptation to remake his life through art, music, and storytelling.
Blending drumming, flute music, painting, and lived history, he shares how Native communities have survived beyond the signing of treaties. Audiences will gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous history, strength, and creativity today
This talk is made possible through the Humanities Washington Speakers Bureau.
