The California Indian Museum and Cultural Center invites you to an evening of
storytelling with Jacque Tahuka-Nunez. Please bring your family and share in
positive messages for youth. Ms. Nunez, a master storyteller, teacher, singer,
director, writer and cultural consultant, will share stories of her Acjachemen
ancestors. Selected as “Educator of the Year” 2009 for the State of California, she
combines ancient wisdom with classroom teaching techniques in creating historically
accurate and culturally appropriate resources for students. Ms. Nunez will explore
the history of storytelling and the use of oral tradition in preserving and passing on
California Indian cultural heritage. She has shared her stories at Disneyland, Los
Angeles and Anaheim convention centers, and hundreds of schools and libraries. Ms.
Nunez believes in the use of storytelling to illustrate the beauty of California Indian
communities and looks to inspire others to discover more about their own cultures.
Come and learn how to bring storytelling back into your families, communities, and
classrooms!
