About

David R. Maracle, Bear Clan, Tehanenia’kwè:tarons – (Cutter of the Stone) has been crafting his artistry since 1985, from his home community of Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka-Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory. Through his magnificent prize-winning stone sculptures, musical compilations and all aspects of his entrepreneurial ventures as a business owner on his Indigenous Territory, David brings to life the ancestral teachings of the Haudenosaunee People.

David’s originals in stone sculptures are celebrated worldwide, with many corporations and private collectors owning his work, including the estate of the late Nelson Mandela, the Emperor of Japan, Dan Aykroyd and Loretta Lynn.

In addition to being a world-renowned sculptor of stone, David is also an international award-winning multi-instrumentalist, musician, poet, composer and producer who has released over 18 musical compilations and scores for various award-winning documentaries during his multifaceted career. To date, David has received two Gold Records from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for his world fusion ambient melodies of the Iroquoian Love Flute and his personal collection of rare world instruments.

We are hounoured that he will be sharing his stories and unique music on our stage at Joel Stone Park
