Portland, Oregon, will be alive with Indigenous Peoples culture today. Native artists, storytellers, musicians and dancers will gather for a celebration of indigenous communities unlike any other in the Portland area.
The Indigenous Experience NW 2013, which is being held at the Scottish Rite Center, 709 Southwest 15th Avenue, aims to bring Native culture and traditions to the masses to foster appreciation for Native art in a city where, organizers say, it is underrepresented. The event’s theme is “The Medicine Within.”
