61st Annual Winter Night Ceremonials!
The Sahawe Dancers from Uvalde, TX arrived at 3:35 am this morning and are probably just waking up at the Kiva. They have danced with us many times. They will have four dances of their own, and the veterans may join in some of the Kwahadi dances too. We are excited and blessed they have come to dance with us! Ramon Castro, their long-time leader, reports they have a mostly new young group. The Sahawe have a party of 22 people including 15 dancers.
Be at the Kiva by a. 2:00 to meet the Sahawe group and to get ready for the 3 pm Parent Show. We hope parents can come out with friends (as we have been encouraging) to give the team a nice audience for the opening show. KGNC radio (the family station) has been running ads for the show. The weather may discourage some, but it has been so cold for a while perhaps most folks have accepted it and going on with activities.
In between the shows, Debbie has been helping the parents organize a potluck dinner for everyone. We have breakfasts foods for them in the morning before they begin the long journey back to Uvalde.
Be sure to check your winter regalia to be sure you have it all. You are a small, but very talented, dance team, and every dancer is important to making the shows a success! 😊
Look forward to seeing everyone!
Charles

Cultural Currency: Contemporary Art from the Riemer Collection presents the innovative ways artists use money as a conceptual idea and medium to explore notions of value and worth beyond declared denominations.
For centuries, the constant exchange of money for goods and services has been core to our daily lives. We rely on monetary transactions, a quintessential human act, to meet our needs and desires – from luxury purchases to essential items like food and shelter. Given this worldwide phenomenon, consumers rarely consider the aesthetic qualities of currency, which range in various colors and sizes, and designed by artists. As artist Ray Beldner aptly points out, U.S. currency is “the world’s biggest ongoing print edition. Every bill is unique, and it’s numbered uniquely. It’s signed by the person that caused it to be made, the Secretary of the Treasury. It’s made from archival materials. It’s 100 percent cotton. It’sbeautifully done.” In its most basic form, money is art! Learn more
