On Saturday, November 5 at 10 a.m, the Cortland County Historical Society and the Cortland Free Library present BEFORE WE WERE HERE, a program about the origins of the world according to Native American legends. Our special guest, Archaeology professorEllie McDowell-Loudan, will talk about indigenous traditions, and we’ll read books like Coyote Makes Man (Sage, Teckentrup), The First Strawberries (Bruchac, Vojtech), and an original Raven creation story. Then we’ll decorate raven pictures and use paper plates and yarn to weave our own designs.
