1 min read

Friends of Heritage Public Library will present “Early Native American Culture” by Todd Johnson on April 5.

There will be two presentations. The program from 10:30 a.m. to noon is geared toward sixth- through ninth-graders, and the 1 to 2:30 p.m. program will be presented for 10th- through 12th-graders and adults.

Johnson will portray Ghost in the Head, a Huron Indian. He will discuss the culture, with a focus on the French and Indian War. It will be an interactive presentation with a large display of Indian material.

Johnson has worked with the Boy Scouts and created an Indian Lore badge and has received letters of recognition from Congress for his portrayal of Ghost in the Head. He also is a consultant at Fort Necessity National Battlefield and Meadowcroft Rockshelter and Historic Village.

A framed print of Johnson done by artist Andrew Knez Jr. of McMurray also will be raffled. Tickets are $1 each, with proceeds benefiting the library.

Admission is $5 for students and $8 for adults, with a free raffle ticket with each ticket purchase.

Seating is limited, and reservations are required by calling Anita at 412-414-5782.
