Presented by educator and cultural historian Jim Two Crows Wallen, “Tipi Daze” offers an engaging and respectful exploration of Native American history, culture, and storytelling. During the day, Two Crows will also work with Pipestone Area Schools students, bringing this important educational experience directly to the students of our community.
