Last week we had the opportunity to meet M. Cochise Anderson, Native American artist in residence. Mr. Anderson is a musician, actor, poet, performance artist, playwright, story teller, and educator who originates from the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations of Oklahoma.
Mr. Anderson shared beautiful music, fun stories, and lots of Native American history with the students. His music was hauntingly beautiful! What an amazing opportunity the students had to work with him!
A special thanks to Mrs. Van Beusekom who make his visit possible by writing a grant through Central Minnesota Arts Board!
