What an honor to have the Sámi National Theatre Beaivváš at the Museum this past weekend for their debut US tour! Audience members were treated to special performances of JUOIGGAS!, a musical voyage through the history and culture of Sami yoik, one of Europe’s oldest folk music genres originating from the indigenous Sámi people.
🎵 Our gratitude to performers Mary Sarre, Iŋgor Ántte Áilu Gaup (Áilloš), Nils Henrik Buljo, Egil Keskitalo, and the entire Sámi National Theatre creative team!
