GTK showcases Talking Sticks with artist Penny Williams-Gamble

Today our Prince Georges County Parks Get-to-Know.org artist
Penny Williams-Gamble was at the 2014 Cultural Arts Expo at the Equestrian Center in Upper Marlboro.












There were many interested visitors stopping by our table as Penny exhibited some of the Talking Sticks that she has made and demonstrated their process.

There is an excellent article from the Institute For American Indian Studies about Talking sticks that will guide you through making one with your family.
