At the "Suvoyuki Day" Festival, gain insight into the lifestyle, language, celebrations, history of the Hopi Tribe and learn about etiquette on Hopi lands at Homolovi State Park.

Learn from carvers, jewelers, potters, and basket weavers while hearing Hopi history through storytelling, music and dancing. The corn roasting pit will be opened at 8 a.m. and will start the day's activities.

WHAT: Suvoyuki Day

WHERE: Homolovi State Park - Located five miles northeast of the city of Winslow in northeastern Arizona.
