Storytelling is a way to preserve culture and language, which is why Native Voices brings back its Young Native Playwrights program. Native youth from across Turtle Island will participate in an eight-week playwriting course that will nourish, elevate, and amplify their voices, and plays written will be performed live onstage at the Autry, as well as live streamed. Tickets are included with admission to the American Indian Arts Festival. Seating is available on a first come first serve basis.
