About this event

children of all ages.

Drawing from her Lakota, Apache, and Scot Traveller backgound, Dovie has been a steward of Indigenous history and stories throughout her life. She has been featured at countless prominent global events, including the Kennedy Center, the National Museum of the American Indian, the Smithsonian, Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, and festivals from Tennessee to Estonia and from New Zealand to New Mexico.
