What's Happening?
A 12-hour concert is set to take place this weekend to honor the late Holly T. Bird, a lawyer, activist, tribal judge, and former TCAPS school board member. Bird, who passed away last year at the age of 55, had requested her friends to commemorate her life
with a gathering. Her friend Seth Bernard recalls Bird's wish for a meaningful celebration rather than a large party. The event will feature various performances and is part of a broader community effort to remember Bird's contributions and legacy.
