The Madera Tamejavi Festival will take place in Corte Madera Park, in the
downtown area of the city. Because the principal organizers are indigenous
Mixtec, Zapotec, and P'urhepechas, the overriding theme will be "Un Dia de
Convivencia Indigena," along with the celebration of the efforts indigenous
peoples are making to build a sense of community in the city of Madera.
The festival will begin with an opening ceremony presented by our Native American brothers and sisters, followed by a parade/march through the main streets of Madera. We will arrive at the marketplace in the park, a place in which crafts presentations will be held. Two indigenous musicians will be the headliners of the festival Rocio Prospero, the well-known P'urhepecha singer and Marta Toledo, the equally well-known Zapotec singer from Juxitan. We are also hoping to count on the presence of Alejandro Vera; a Mixtec mask sculptor, as well as other indigenous artisans living in the Central Valley. As in previous years, we will have platicas addressing issues impacting the Central Valley, photography exhibitions, and poetry sessions, we will conclude the mini-festival with music and a sampling of future presentations for the 2007 Third TAMEJAVI.
