Where Language Gathers

-A comic strip dialogue-

Join us in Celebrating & Honoring Our Ancestral Languages! Experience being a language learner of ancestral languages Hopi, Navajo, Yaqui, and Vietnamese. Language speakers will guide attendees in using an ancestral language to learn a dialogue script titled "French Fries."

In closing, over the sharing of Food Provided, participants will be invited to story their oral immersion language teaching-learning experience/s. We hope the stories will highlight the power of language as a living expression of cultural identity and resilience
