Yá’át’ééh shik’éí dóó shidiné’é! Ever wonder why Navajo introductions sound like a beautiful family tree? Or why knowing your “four clans” is basically your cultural GPS?

Join us for a 2-part hands-on youth workshop to dive into the power of K’é (Kinship). This isn’t your average history lesson; it’s about discovering who you are and where you come from.

What’s in it for you?

• Find Your Identity: Master your formal introduction (Yá’át’ééh!) and represent your family with pride
• Learn WHY: The matrilineal (mom’s side!) system makes Navajo culture so unique
• Connect & Vibe: Meet other Diné youth, share stories, and learn from Young Elder Mentors that keep Navajo traditions alive Whether you know all four of your clans or you’re just starting to ask questions, this space is for YOU.
• Come for knowledge, stay for the community, and leave with a deeper connection to the Diné way of life.
