Global Passport: Yup'ik Masks

Event Date: 
01/17/2013 - 5:00pm to 7:00pm

Explore the culture of the Yup'ik people who live in Western Alaska. Each Yup'ik mask represents the spirit of a mammal, bird, fish, insect, plant, ice, or other object of everyday life. Work with artist Julie Kastigar Boada to create a modern version of a Yup'ik mask representing your favorite animal of the Arctic.

Saint Paul Public Library’s Global Passport series presents free cultural programs for kids grades three to six. Pick up an event postcard at your library and bring it to each program to get stamped. Just like a passport! Supported by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
