Quyana

October 21, 2005

Fairbanks is hosting this year's Alaska Federation of Natives conference this weekend, and I'm finding myself wanting desperately to grab tickets to Quyana Alaska tonight, a celebration of native Alaskan traditional dances.

The only problem with this desire is that I know I will probably not be terribly interested in it. The only reason I want to go is because I know that it would be a perfect photographic opportunity.

The dances are fun and spectacular, yes, but it's a bit like a native New Yorker never visiting the Statue of Liberty; I'm well aware I've taken it for granted, and I don't much care.

The three Quyana performances always sell out, so I am sure there is no chance of even getting a ticket. But, oh, the possibilities.
