Come see the first Ohlone gift basket created in over 200 years. We are all so proud!! Linda Yamane, a hero of mine, revitalized our basketry. We will be honoring her and our culture on that day.
Linda, other Ohlone people, and myself will be greeting people in Ohlone languages, singing our songs, and literally “singing” the basket’s arrival.
Cultural revitalization success. Oakland Museum. July 28 @ 1pm. Free admission.
