The artisans will be demonstrating under the large shade structure just beyond the north end of the main parking lot, and within the paved concourse. In addition, park rangers are staffing an information desk at the same location, from 9 am to 4 pm (as staffing allows).
- The Cultural Demonstration program provides an opportunity for visitors and community members to interact with tribal artisans from Grand Canyon's traditionally associated tribes - and for them to share their history and crafts, along with the skills, knowledge, and efforts involved in creating each craft.
- This series is made possible with grants from Grand Canyon Conservancy.
