The Museum of Northern Arizona Celebrates Annual Hopi Heritage Festival
Hopi people dance to bring rainfall. On Saturday, the Hopi people shared this dance at the Hopi heritage festival at the Museum of Northern Arizona. They also shared glimpses into the history and culture of the Hopi people. Alice Dashee explained that the Hopi people rely heavily on corn to survive. There are four colors of corn for the Hopi. Each corn represents a geographic direction, and when the Hopi first arrived from the migration they were told to choose between the colors. The Hopi chose blue, representing North and humility. http://bit.ly/180pzEk – Arizona Daily Sun
