Cocopah Tribe to host cultural celebration

The Cocopah Tribe of Arizona is holding its 11th annual cultural celebration on Friday.

The celebration features a community feast, music, singing and cultural presentations. It started in 1996 to mark the opening of the Cocopah Museum.

On Saturday, the museum is unveiling two exhibits. One is a mural made from locally-taken photographs and the other is a traditional summer home built by elders and youth.
