NMAI Cultural Arts and The Smithsonian Associates present Drew Lacapa! Comedian Andrew "Drew" Lacapa (Apache/Hopi/Tewa) combines Native folk tales, contemporary humor, and Indian flair. He believes his humor is not discriminatory in that everyone is worthy of being teased regardless of ethnicity or religion. His act personifies the hardships of Native people in this century. Lacapa's physical antics, enhanced with costumes, create a unique portrait of contemporary America's indigenous people.

Resident and NMAI Members $15; General admission $20. The Mitsitam Native Foods Café will be open during this program
