(Washington, D.C., Sept. 10) The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) – the country’s oldest, largest and most representative national American Indian and Alaska Native organization – has partnered with the Native American Music Association (NAMA). NAMA is the nation’s leading and only comprehensive source for contemporary and traditional music. The Association directly assists Native American artists while enhancing cultural preservation. The result of the partnership will be a benefit concert hosted by NAMA on Tuesday, Nov. 12, at the Town and Country Resort, San Diego, Calif. The concert will coincide with the NCAI’s 59th Annual Session, which takes place Nov. 10-15 at the same location. “We are thrilled to be partnering with NAMA, whose efforts we support, and are grateful for the opportunity to be recipient of this benefit for the National Congress of American Indians,” said NCAI President Tex G. Hall. “I am also personally gratified that thousands of Native people attending our Annual Session and the California general public will have an unprecedented opportunity to hear some of the best music coming out of Indian Country.” Tickets for the concert will be $20. Information about how to order tickets will be announced soon. Founded in 1944, NCAI is the country’s oldest, largest and most representative national American Indian and Alaska Native organization. NCAI advocates for more than 250 tribal governments with the federal government and the Congress, promoting strong federal-tribal “government-to-government” policy and promoting a better understanding among the general public regarding American Indian and Alaska Native governments, people and rights. For more information about NCAI and about the 59th Annual Session, visit http://www.ncai.org or call (202) 466-7767. |
