Campfire Stories with Virginia Holiman and Kurt Valenta at Lake Carmi State Park

Join Virginia and Kurt for a unique campfire program. Expect a confluence of traditional native storytelling and the exploration of nature's mysteries. Virginia and Kurt bring the stories' characters to reality through the natural artifacts the audience can examine after each story. The presentation is a series of stories based in folklore, followed by a show-and- tell of the main character's physical attributes. Kurt shares his collection of pelts, skulls, tracks and a myriad of other pieces that allow participants to feel a fur or touch a sharp tooth, thereby underscoring the story's roots in reality. 

Event free with park entrance. Meet near the campfire circle.
