Cynthia Ben, Dine' Tsaile, AZ
Join Dine' Medicine Men, Jay Canode and Kent for an evening of:
  • The western mind and linear conversing will undoubedly blend into a quantum field.
  • The nature of BeautyWay, win-win, WERALL1 will be called forward by our visiting Dine' Hataalii's.
  • Imagine the weaving together of a spiritual container. Within is an intention of honoring inclusion, individual and collective healing and the merging of Nature's wisdom and integration. Soul talk spoken here! 
The evening's outline:
  • Kent will bring a retrospective of images and stories from his extensive time on the Dine' (aka Navajo) Rez amid Medicine Men and Women and everyday occurrences, stories. 
  • Time with Blackfoot, Cheyenne and Apache may make an appearance.
  • We'll visit sacred sites and recent interviews with Kent's colleagues, Anderson Hoskie and Harrison Jim, both Dine' Medicine Men.
  • Together we will paint both a visual and storytelling picture of Dine'tah, the Place of Emergence for the Dine' and other southwestern Tribes. Dine'tah is located in NW New Mexico, where Kent co-directed a five year documentary project with his good friend Will Tsosie, Jr. with funding through the Arizona Commission on the Arts. 
  • Jay and Kent recently traveled with various other artists, curators and Anderson Hoskie and Harrison Jim,
  • You will hear segments of the Medicine Men's interpretation of this sacred place and how it connects with various ceremonies alive today throughout their traditions, healing practices and all of humankind. . 
  • Join us in an evening of
  • lecture, storytelling AND ceremony, based in Dine' BeautyWay tradition. This lineage honors diversity and inclusion. This path reminds us that our strongest shield and power resides in our softness amid an underlying fierceness and unity. Add some quantum physics, knowledge of natural order, herbal medicines and ancient wisdom and that's a good enough start for a very special evening. 
  • Paradise Theater Tickets $20
