WEST GLACIER, MONT. - Glacier National Park officials are pleased to announce the entire Native America Speaks schedule for the 2010 season. Now in its 29th season, the Native America Speaks program provides park visitors the opportunity to hear from members of the Blackfeet, Salish and Kootenai Tribes as they share their perspectives about their culture, traditions, mythology and personal connection to this place now known as Glacier National Park.
All programs are free except for Two Medicine Lake Singers and Dancers performances held on Wednesday evenings at the St. Mary Visitor Center Auditorium. Tickets go on sale the morning of the performance and are available at the St. Mary Visitor Center Bookstore ($5 for adults and free for children 12 and under). Seating is limited.
