Chumash Storyteller to Present Program
Noted Chumash storyteller Gilbert Unzuela will host a program at the Strathearn Historical Park and Museum in Simi Valley about the world of Ventura County’s earliest residents.
Beginning at 2 p.m. Aug. 22, Unzuela will tell stories of these early people and explain how they interpreted the world around them.
Unzuela’s ancestors were Barbareno Chumash, and his grandmother provided volumes of information to renowned linguist and ethnologist John Peabody Harrington, who compiled much of the current work about the Chumash.
The event is free at the historic park at 137 Strathearn Place.
For information, call 526-6453.
