Wednesday 08 October 2008 |  “Native Arts Gallery Offers Variety of Programs” | | | |
|
The Native Arts Center & Gallery has scheduled a series of programs from October through December. On Saturday, October 18 from 5:00pm-7:00pm, the American Indian Arts Council is hosting a Membership Roundup and Mixer for current and prospective members. Several local American Indian Artists who are represented in the gallery will be on hand to talk about their artwork. The council’s Board Members will be available to discuss the membership program, its purposes, and the benefits. As a thank-you, all members in attendance will receive a beautiful 4-color poster. Wine, cheese, and light refreshments will be served.
During the month of November, the gallery will celebrate Native American Heritage Month with a retrospective art exhibit featuring Doc Tate Nevaquaya (Comanche). Nevaquaya was a Master Artist whose paintings are “characterized by amazing technical control, exquisite colors and mastery of detail.” In addition to being a visual artist, Nevaquaya was an accomplished Traditional Indian Flute Player. His music will be featured during the exhibit Opening Reception scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 1, 4:00-6:00pm. This special exhibit is curated by Edward Hummingbird (Cherokee) of Blue Deer Gallery Brokerage and is scheduled from November 1-29 during gallery hours.
In December, as part of the “Meet the Artist” Series, the gallery will feature Native Potter, Patricia Baxter Shebola (Hopi-Zuni). Patricia will demonstrate and share insights into her heritage and culture. Patricia’s work is a blending of two cultures with all pieces hand built and hand painted. She is specially known for her “Southwest Nativity” sets and unique Christmas ornaments. Meet this Artist on Saturday, December 13, from 1:00-5:00pm in the gallery.
The Native Arts Center & Gallery is located in North Dallas at 732 Preston Forest Shopping Center in the southeast corner of Preston Road and Forest Lane . . . next to Whole Foods Market. This project is supported by Mixon Realty Investment Company, the City of Dallas Office of Cultural Affairs, and Texas Commission on the Arts, All activities are free and open to the public.

Friday 10 October 2008 | Evon Peter on Alaska Native Rights & Governor Palin | | | |

My organization provides culturally based leadership development through offices in Alaska and Arizona. My wife, who is Navajo, and I have been based out of Flagstaff, Arizona for the past few years, although I travel home to Alaska in support of our initiatives there as well. It is interesting to me that my wife and I find ourselves as Indigenous people from the two states where McCain and Palin originate in their leadership.

Saturday 15 March 2008 | Man Wolf making flutes again! | | | |
|  Man Wolf Strayhorn, traditional Cherokee flute maker, has been on a sabbatical from his art work. After fifteen years of seven days a week, he really needed a rest! His passion for the instrument, and music could not keep him off the scene for ever, and he is back, and taking custom orders. During his absence from the world of flute making, he has developed his own style of wood flutes. Incorporating the ancient measurements and traditions of the Cherokee cane flutes into the construction and style of the wood flute, his flutes are really unique and one of a kind; a real collectors item.
" I really missed seeing the joy in a persons face the first time they play the flute that has been tuned by their own body measurements. Many times, this is the first instrument they have ever played, and they are awestruck that they can actually play it at all."
Man Wolf says he has a new CD planed for later this year or early next year. To view Man Wolfs pages on the Cherokee flutes and his music, click the link on the left panel for Man Wolfs Flutes. To see the Texas Country Reporter television show segment, click on the Man Wolf on TV link. He will be updating his pages often as new products and photos require.
See his work at Man Wolfs Flutes.

C. J. Strayhorn06 Sep : 09:11Sorry it took me so long to answer. I make traditional flutes, and they are "Native Tuned". They usually are in the key of F#. I say they are "in the key of ME".
Rick Carroll30 Aug : 10:02O siyo Manwolf,
I have another question about your flutes. Are they tuned to a standard pitch? Can they be played with other intruments without retuning them?
Thanks,
Rick C.
