Native Story Hour
The library’s NW Authors Series will be participating in The 3rd Annual Gathering, a celebration of Native American Heritage Month. Join us for a weekend of storytelling, art, music, poetry, presentations and more, November 14th-16th. Schedule and more info: TBA. All programs are being offered free of charge (donations are encouraged).
November 15th at 1 p.m. we will host Indigenous Storyteller Karen Kitchen (Osage Nation). Kitchen will present Native Story Hour, a family event designed to promote Native authors, illustrators, and publishers, engage children and their families through story and song, and tell traditional stories. Kitchen will also perform songs to inspire and educate participants about Indigenous history, contemporary issues, and American Indian music.
Come sing, listen, learn and celebrate Native cultures. This is a family program – all are welcome. Children will also be able to experiment with and make their own indigenous instruments.
Karen Kitchen is a citizen of the Osage Nation. She is a Prek-12 educator with three decades of service in Title VI Indian Education programs in Portland Public Schools. She has also worked as a researcher and advisor in two National Science Foundation grants through Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and more recently, in the Indigenous First Steps Program at Portland State University.
This event is produced by Cannon Beach community nonprofits, including: The Tolovana Arts Colony, Cannon Beach History Center & Museum, The Cannon Beach Arts Association, The Coaster Theatre Playhouse, the Cannon Beach Library and the Cannon Beach Chamber of Commerce.

Closed Captioning
Closed captioning provides a transcript for the audio track of a video presentation that is synchronized with the video and audio tracks. Captions are generally visually displayed over the video, which benefits people who are deaf and hard of hearing, and anyone who cannot hear the audio due to noisy environments. Most of our website’s video content includes automated captions. Learn how to turn captioning on and off in YouTube.
Volume Controls
Your computer, tablet, or mobile device has volume control features. Each video and audio service has its own additional volume controls. Try adjusting both your device’s volume controls and your media players’ volume controls to optimize your listening experience.
