The Flute at Sunrise–Chaco Canyon<\/em><\/h1>\n
JUNE 16-18, 2023<\/div>\n
(Just a few spaces left–register soon!)<\/strong><\/div>\n
On the mesa at Chaco. You. Native American flute plays as birds sing the day awake. First rays of sunrise warmly greet you.<\/em><\/div>\n
If you’ve been to Chaco Canyon New Mexico before, you most likely want to return.\u00a0 If you’ve never been to this profound World Heritage site, this is your opportunity for a wonderful immersive experience.\u00a0 Chaco is vast, silent and filled with the voices of the Ancestors in ancient Pueblo sites, rock art known as petroglyphs and phenomenal archeoastronomy reflected in its buildings.\u00a0 Then there are the stars at night!

\nIn fact, this will be New Moon when the night sky will especially display her sparkling glory.\u00a0 We will be in the Canyon close to Summer Solstice, when special features of the ancient buildings receive the first rays of light in a remarkable display of architecture and the natural world.

Cultural resource guide for\u00a0 the group will be respected elder and artist Bea Duran of Tesuque Pueblo.\u00a0 Bea considers Chaco to be ancestral heartland and homeland and her humor and goodwill radiates a warm welcome to all.<\/div>\n

Prior to the two night camping trip, the group will meet\u00a0 with Ehren Kee Natay, a local Indigenous multi-media artist and recognized member of the Dine Nation with Kewa Pueblo, Irish and German ancestry. Deeply connected to his ancestral traditions, Ehren will share his understanding of historical and contemporary Indigenous culture, dispelling myths along the way.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 http:\/\/www.ehrenkeenatay.com\/<\/a><\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a>His creative work\u00a0has shown internationally and can be found at two New Mexico Heritage Museums.\u00a0His current work further infuses his musical craft in Native American flute and drumming with visual aesthetics via live-performance.<\/span>\u00a0In his words, “I have a prayer, a spirit, a breath that is inside me.\u00a0 It tells me to create. It\u00a0cannot be silenced.\u00a0 It can only be quiet by creating.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n
\n

It is this spirit and breath that can be found in Chaco Canyon. I hope you will join us in this journey of discovery.
