Weekday Educational Programs

Teachers have the option of choosing a program geared toward:

  • Cherokee Culture
  • Chumash Culture  
  • General Native American Studies

The program usually starts @ 10:00 am and concludes @ 1: pm. Time adjustments can be made.  We usually start with a lecture based on the Tribe that the students are studying, then teach the students about some of the plants and herbs that are used by the American Indian for medicine and food.  We demonstrate how they make cordage out of different plants (dogbane and milkweed).  We then teach them a game and let them take part in playing the game.  The program also has a period where we entertain the students with some ancient American Indian storytelling.  Time permitting we teach them a song and let them use some of the old musical instruments such as small hand drums, rattles and clapper sticks. 

Our prices are $100 for 20 students minimum. Each additional student: $5 to be paid at time of visit.

Custom programs may be available at additional cost.

$100 deposit must be received at least two weeks prior to visit.
