Buffaloes soar at Long Beach Kite Festival LONG BEACH, WASH. — During this year’s Wash- ington State International Kite Festival, the Buffalo Kite Project will exhibit kites created by some of the nation’s most highly regarded Native American artists. The festival takes place in Long Beach from Mon- day, Aug. 21, to Sunday, Aug. 27. “Kites are a marvelous way to honor the history of Buffalo Jumps, along with being a great learning tool involving science, math, engineering, art, aerody- SUBMITTED PHOTO namics, and weather,” said Terry Zee Lee, exhibit curator and founder of Sky- WindWorld. “The concept of making well-known Na- tive artists’ buffalo images soar ... into the sky, instead of plunging to their death, is a very exciting process.” Representing nine native nations, Buffalo kites will be flown Wednesday through Friday, Aug. 23 through 25. The entire collection of 14 large kites will be displayed 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each of those days. The exhibit will be on a section of beach adjacent to the Long Beach boardwalk. The native nations repre- sented are Salish Kootenai, Crow, Northern Cheyenne, Cherokee, Sioux, Caddo, Oglala Lakota, Metis and Navajo. The Buffalo Kite Proj- ect, which started in 2013, was conceived to highlight the historical importance of the buffalo, buffalo jumps and First Nations art. It is ongoing and always adding new kites.
