In this high-energy, deeply inspiring family performance, Starr utilizes up to 24 hoops to weave intricate shapes representing animals, birds, and the cycles of life while sharing traditional Lakota teachings of balance, harmony, and resilience. Children and parents are invited into the performance circle for an engaging interactive segment where they learn introductory hoop manipulations. The cultural center is stroller accessible, equipped with ground-floor accessible restrooms and diaper changing tables. Afterwards, families can enjoy the adjacent newly renovated nature play space and duck pond. ## Similar picks coming up in Chicago - [Macy's on State Street Holiday Windows & Walnut Room Great Tree](https://grassyknees.com/chicago/activities/macy-s-on-state-street-holiday-windows-and-walnut-room-great-tree--listing-7ef39ebb8b341df5b58569ec) — Nov 7 – Jan 17 · 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM · Macy's on State Street (Historic Marshall Field & Company Building) · All ages · Free · checked Nov 7.
