All My Relations Celebration at Levitt Denver

All My Relations Celebration was a music festival at Levitt Pavilion meant to celebrate indigenous artistry through music, dance, and art by bridging cultural heritage with a contemporary lens. In partnership with Denver Indian Center, this festival aims to highlight native creatives through a mixture of performances from native musicians, a live painter, vendors and artisans, informational resource booths, food to share, youth programming and comedic medicine. It was a real honor to photograph this event for Levitt Denver!

The Halluci Nation, takes its name from a phrase coined by John Trudell, to describe the vast global community of people who remember at their core what it means to be human.
