Explore the Lelooska Museum and learn about the many uses of rawhide by Native Peoples. View a special exhibit of parfleches from our collection.

Visit the fur trade camp in our new outdoor education area where interpreters will demonstrate the paint making process. Try making pigment from rocks and binding it into paint and painting your own rawhide disk to take home.

Meet under the tent outside the Gathering Hall to color, cut and fold your own miniature paper parfleche.

Please register for your arrival time so we can ensure we have materials for you!

This event is made possible with the generous support of Mark & Midori Hanus, Fibre Federal Credit Union, Port of Woodland, Paramount Sewing & Vacuum, and Cowlitz County Tourism.
