IPCC’s Family Story Time: Stories on Stone

@ Children’s Area of Museum Saturday 06.08, 2024
01:00 pm - 02:00 pm MDT

On Saturday, June 8th, our Storyteller will be Anthony Tekala (Zuni) and our book title will be Stories on Stone by Jennifer Owings Dewey.

This book introduces young readers to the rich history and mystery of rock art in the Southwest. As a youngster growing up in the American Southwest, Jennifer Dewey became fascinated with the images she saw carved in stone years before by the area’s natives. For this book, Dewey has produced original color drawings that vividly recreate the images painted and carved into rocks centuries ago.

Free for children and adult family member.
