A Skyteller Evening

We all are familiar with the Greco-Roman legends of familiar constellations, now we will hear the legends of the first people to live here! Join us on September 24 as we welcome Choctaw Skyteller Lynn Maroney for a fascinating evening. As a child growing up in Oklahoma, she would gaze in wonder at the stars and constellations that would cascade across the evening sky. For more than 30 years, Lynn has captured those wonders and wrapped them with folk tales and myths from all cultures. Her repertory abounds with sky tales from around the world ... most particularly the sky myths and stories of indigenous peoples. Lynn has also conducted workshops for NASA Outreach, the Lunar and Planetary Institute, the International Planetarium Society, and the Astronomical Society of the Pacific. Area astronomy clubs will also be here!
