“Circle of Ancestors is pleased to announce that Ilarion ‘Larry’ Merculieff, an Aleut (Unangan) elder from Alaska will be joining us for an evening in the East Bay.  Larry was raised traditionally on the Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea.  His traditional name, Kuuyux, was given to him when he was 4 years old, and means ‘extension of ancient knowledge into modern times.’  He is a messenger of indigenous prophecy and wisdom.

Ilarion will talk about how ancient indigenous knowledge and practices not only hold the answers for our critical modern day issues like climate change and violence; but how this ancient knowledge can also help us to manage the conflict and stress of our everyday lives.

This event is a fundraiser for Circle of Ancestors to continue supporting ancestral knowledge and inviting elders and healers to our community.”
