Unity of South Sound is honored to welcome Rona Yellow Robe, internationally known singer-songwriter and Native flutist, for a special concert in celebration of Indigenous Peoples Day.
This event will begin with the reading of our Land Acknowledgement Statement, followed by a Call to the Four Directions and a smudging ceremony led by Rona. Through music, ritual, and storytelling, she will invite us into a sacred space of connection and healing.
In the spirit of justice and healing, 10% of proceeds will be donated to an agency supporting missing and murdered Indigenous women and youth.
