Native Fiber Artisan Mountain Retreat
with Irene Bennalley
August 3-10, 2008
Toadlena, New Mexico
During the summer of 2008, Irene Bennalley, a Navajo Weaver from Toadlena , New Mexico along with Vangee Nez from Tocito , NM, will be conducting a retreat in the Chuska Mountain above Toadlena , NM on the Navajo Nation. Irene is of the Tse'na'bil'ni (Sleepy Rock Clan), born for Tah'ni'zahni (Tangle Clan), her maternal grandparents are T'oh'di'chiini (Bitterwater Clan) and paternal grandparents are Ah'chii (Salt Clan). Vangee Nez from Tocito , NM is of the Tah'chini Clan and born for Tah'ni'zahni (Tangle Clan), her maternal grandparents are Nakai Dine'e (Mexican Clan) and paternal grandparents are Bitahni (Mountain Ledge Clan).
Every summer, Irene and Vangee grew up taking their family flock high into the Chuska mountains where the temperatures are cooler, the grass and water more abundant.
The week-long retreat will be a healing experience which will include an opening & closing ceremony. Irene will conduct lessons on Navajo Churro Sheep and sheepherding techniques along with stories of sheepherding, and a Tobacco Ceremony for the Sheep. The participants will participate in early morning and evening prayers and engage in Talking Circles. The participants will also be engaged in various classes to weave a Navajo rug which will include: wool carding, spinning, and weaving. For extra activities, the participants will learn Navajo open fire cooking (fry-bread & tortillas & blue corn mush), will take nature walks, and pick herbal Navajo tea. At the end of the week, participants will leave with their own Navajo-style rug.
The weaving materials used during the week are from Irene's flock. The full schedule will provide the attendees with an intimate look at the interaction of the humans with the sheep in establishing a way-of-life that has existed for centuries. The transmission of ancient knowledge and healing practices in the ceremonies, talking circles, prayers, and nature walks are calming techniques to enhance the transformation in harmony to reconnect with nature and come into your being.
At the beginning and end of the retreat, Mark Winter (Owner) will guide us on a tour at the Historic Toadlena Trading Post Museum which houses many of the priceless rugs seen in this film.
The Retreat will cost $875.00 for a week-long stay at the mountain side property. Participants must bring their own camping gear and provide their own transporation to Toadlena Museum.

This video introduces the oil painting "Canyon of the Anasazi" by the nationally recognize
This video introduces the oil painting "Canyon of the Anasazi" by the nationally recognized artist William Scott Jennings (www.wsjennings.com), accompanied by the song "Goddess of the River" from the CD "Light on the Path" by the multi instrumentalist Vibhas Kendzia (www.vibhas.org) on the Native Flute.
Scott and Vibhas are inspired by the magic of their hometown Sedona Arizona and the southwestern deserts. Both artists are passing on their skills and gifts through teaching in and around Sedona AZ. William Scott Jennings released just recently his first educational Painting-DVD featuring his Oil Pictures and Vibhas soothing music.
William Scott Jennings has been a professional artist since 1973. He began his career in commercial art; gallery exposure began in 1976; and by 1978 he was showing his work in New Mexico, Arizona and Texas . After residing in Taos, New Mexico for 15 years, Scott relocated to Sedona, Arizona in January 1996. His paintings are in corporate and private collections around the world, including the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC and the Ford Motor Company.
Jennings is a Master Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America (OPA-M) and a Signature Member of the Laguna Plein Air Painters Association (LPAPA) and the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters (RMPAP). Feature articles about Jennings' work have appeared in Art of the West Magazine, Southwest Art Magazine, Focus Magazine Santa Fe and Art Business News as well as features and cover art in American Artist Magazine, International Artist Magazine and The Artist's Magazine...
Vibhas Kendzia is a multi-instrumentalist who has created a unique style of music. Classical training in Germany in piano and flute, studies in Latin percussion and soprano saxophone, and many years playing Native flutes in India and America have all been influential in creating the original sound he plays today.
His travels around the world brought him to Sedona, Arizona where he was introduced to the haunting sound of the Navajo Indian flutes. Playing them to a background of Jazz harmonies and Latin rhythms creates a trance-like atmosphere of relaxation and well being. Vibhas performs most Fridays and Saturdays at the restaurant RENE @ Tlaquepaque in Sedona AZ (www.rene-sedona.com). He also tours throughout the South-West and plays for Resorts, Restaurants and Art-Fairs.
