The Piedmont Virginian Promotes Indian Village at Bluemont Fair Sept. 17-18

FULL Story

​An exciting new feature this year is an authentically replicated Indian Village in Stone’s Field, designed to educate children (and adults!) about Native American culture. Funded through an award from the Virginia Commission for the Arts: Artists in Education Program to Sanctuary on the Trail Inc., (and supplemented by a generous donation from Ken and Julia Falke of Boulder Crest Retreat, and additional grants and donations), a residency collaboration between Sanctuary on the Trail. Inc. and the Village Montessori School created the village, which will be open to the public during both days of the Fair.  Come celebrate with dance, regalia, storytelling, survival skills, living history exhibitors, trading post vendors, North American Bushcraft School, music from Dark Water Rising, and Military veteran and uniformed services tribute. Purchase authentic Native American Indian jewelry and watch these artisans create unique works of art.

Event times at the Indian Village can be found within the Fair schedule at www.bluemontfair.org   Requested donation for entrance to the Indian Village is $3 per person or $15 per family.
