Homespun Instruments
Homespun Instruments is an interactive workshop which stimulates music making, creative expression and positive group dynamics through the use of a wide array of simple and homemade instruments. A brief overview of historic origins and construction of selected instruments sets the stage, after which participants ‘join the band’, as Miss “V” leads traditional folk, cowboy and classic country tunes. The program is excellent for students, family-oriented community events, living history demonstrations and folk festivals.
Dawn In The Night
Dawn in the Night (Chautauqua Performance) is a unique and compelling portrayal of Amelia Earhart set in 1934. Highlights of Ms. Earhart’s flying career receive equal attention as her ideological trappings, while details surrounding her disappearance are not the focus of the presentation.The body of the performance, focuses on Amelia's life prior to 1935, though additional questions and post-script follow when Miss “V” appears for the final segment of the performance, covering the last three years of Ms Earhart's life.
The Modern Day Homesteader
The Modern Day Homesteader documentary presentation incorporates slides, music and narrative to depict the artist’s personal account of one homestead ranch. After spending fourteen years on a historic claim in northwest Wyoming and working with the homesteaders themselves, Miss “V” shares her singular insight about life on the ranch. During her extended stay, she maintained a lifestyle in accordance with the way pioneers lived over a century ago. Engaging Q & A discussions are generally inspired by the documentary presentation.
