Stuart Hill's musical training included piano, guitar, banjo, and the Native American flute. He has been playing the Native American flute since 2003. Stuart believes that the flute is an instrument that truly allows a person to portray their heart and soul. Many of his original pieces reflect individual experiences and interactions with nature. He is a member of the World Flute Society; the Northern Virginia and the Winchester Flute Circles — two local groups that meet to share music and flute-related interests. Stuart played flutes in a hospice weekly for eight years. He has performed at coffee shops and cafes, for elementary and middle schools groups, private parties, art exhibit openings, for children’s day camps, and in other public venues. He has appeared at: Jammin Java (Vienna, VA), Ovations Restaurant (Wolftrap Park, Vienna, VA), Bankok Blues (Falls Church, VA), and the Bombay Tandoor Restaurant in Tysons Corner. Stuart has been teaching yoga for 12 years and regularly plays flute during those classes. Stuart is available to provide performances ranging in time from 15-90 minutes. He tells the story of the Native American Flute and demonstrates several of the instruments from his collection; and performs various selections from his four CDs. For some venues, he provides percussion instruments and invites the audience to join in on several songs.

Missing Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls Display Sept. 17-18, 2022 at the Indian Village8/29/2022
For decades, Native American and Alaska Native communities have struggled with high rates of assault, abduction, and murder of women. Community advocates describe the crisis as a legacy of generations of government policies of forced removal, land seizures and violence inflicted on Native peoples.
A 2016 study by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) found that more than four in five American Indian and Alaska Native women (84.3 percent) have experienced violence in their lifetime, including 56.1 percent who have experienced sexual violence. In the year leading up to the study, 39.8 percent of American Indian and Alaska Native women had experienced violence, including 14.4 percent who had experienced sexual violence. Overall, more than 1.5 million American Indian and Alaska Native women have experienced violence in their lifetime.
