Celebre el arte, la cultura y el medio ambiente durante este maravilloso evento en el Parque Estatal Cape Lookout.
Compartir arte, cultura, música y danza de una manera vibrante, colorida, generosa y trascendental para fortalecer la conexión con la naturaleza y unir a las comunidades con celebraciones inspiradoras.
El grupo fue fundado en McMinnville Oregon en 2016 por el artista, musico, intérprete y promotor cultural Eduardo Cruz Torres Amictlan y su esposa y danzante principal del grupo María Elena Cortés Durán Malinalmiquiz quien comenzó a danzar cuando tenía solo 12 años y la danza ha sido parte de su vida desde entonces.
La danza y la música mexica-chichimeca o azteca conecta el mundo natural, el cuerpo humano y el espíritu con todo lo que existe. Es una integración cósmica, una oración en movimiento que deleita los sentidos. Dirigido por María Elena Cortés Durán, los atuendos de los danzantes despliegan vibrantemente coloridos símbolos ancestrales y plumas vívidas. En el tambor huehuetl, Eduardo Cruz Torres marca el ritmo del vuelo de flautas de cerámica, ocarinas, silbatos de viento, mientras sonajas tradicionales, piedras, semillas y raspadores de hueso ambientan cada presentación.
Los movimientos y sonidos de estas animadas presentaciones reflejan la energía que nos une a cada uno de nosotros con los demás y con todo el cosmos. Con alegre generosidad, Huehca Omeyocan pretende inspirar esta trascendente conectividad en cada comunidad que toca.
Únase a Huehca Omeyocan, Friends of Netarts Bay WEBS, Oregon State Parks, OSU Extension, y el Programa Juntos Afuera para un día de inspiración con oportunidades para explorar, aprender, celebrar y actuar por el océano.

——————————————————————————
Celebrate art, culture, and the environment during this wonderful event at Cape Lookout State Park.
Sharing art, culture, music, and dance in a vibrant, colorful, generous, and transcendental way to strengthen connection with nature and bring communities together with inspiring celebrations.
The group was founded in McMinnville Oregon in 2016 by artist, drummer, performer, and cultural promoter Eduardo Cruz Torres Amictlan and his wife and main Dancer of the group Maria Elena Cortes Duran Malinalmiquiz who started dancing when she was only 12 years old and dancing it’s been a part of her life ever since.
The Mexica-Chichimeca or Aztec dance and music connects the natural world, human body, and spirit with everything that exists. It is a cosmic integration — a prayer in motion that delights the senses. Led by Maria Elena Cortes Duran, dancers’ regalia vibrantly display colorful ancestral symbols and vivid feathers. At the Huehuetl drum, Eduardo Cruz Torres sets the rhythm for the flight of ceramic flutes, ocarinas, and wind whistles, while traditional Nahuatl rattles, stones, seeds, and bones stir the atmosphere of each performance.
The movements and sounds of these spirited presentations mirror the energy that joins each of us with each other and the entire cosmos. With joyful generosity, Huehca Omeyocan aims to inspire this transcendent connectivity in every community they touch.
Join Huehca Omeyocan, Friends of Netarts Bay WEBS, Oregon State Parks, OSU Extension, and the Juntos Afuera Program for an inspiring day with opportunities to explore, learn, celebrate, and act for the ocean.
10 AM to 2 PM – Huehca Omeyocan – An Offering to our Healing Ocean: The main event of the day is a celebration honoring our healing ocean led by Huehca Omeyocan. Bring a blanket or camp chair, some snacks, and drinks, and enjoy a day on the beach. Please keep the health of the ocean in mind and keep track of trash, use reusable water bottles and utensils, and dispose of food waste appropriately.
10 AM to 2 PM – Educational Activity Stations and Events: During the celebration, enjoy a number of additional events and activity stations fun for all ages and led by Friends of Netarts Bay WEBS, OSU Tillamook County Extension, Juntos Afuera Program, and Oregon State Parks.
