Chickasaw Nation Storyteller – Champion Public Library

Join Champion Public Library on Monday, July 7th, at 11:00 AM for a traditional storytelling session on Native American culture. Cheyenne Durant, Storytelling Specialist with the Chickasaw Nation Arts & Humanities Division, will perform traditional Chickasaw and Southeastern storytelling for children ages 5 and up. This program is free and open to the public.

The storytellers of the Chickasaw were and are some of the most revered citizens of the Nation. For centuries, their stories reminded people of who they were, why they existed and where their place was within the universe. Stories, songs, and prayers came to life through the power of words. Through them, we can still hear the voices of our ancestors recounting what is sacred and what is history. In days of old, the elders told ancient tales during cold winter evenings within the warmth of the winter house. It was a time of sharing, learning and reflection. But any time was a good time for a great story.

This program is part of the Summer Reading Program (SRP) and is supported in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Library Services and Technology Act, administered by the Oklahoma Department of Libraries.
