Glen Canyon Rising: An Original Short Film - Crow Canyon Archaeological Center

Join us for a very special webinar presentation as we journey through the dramatically etched and colorful landscape of Glen Canyon, exploring its complex life cycle as a defining geological feature of the Colorado Plateau and its deep history as a homeland of Indigenous people.

This original short film, featuring Hopi archaeologist Lyle Balenquah and author Craig Childs, offers a powerful visual and narrative experience that reveals the layers of human history embedded in the landscape. As water levels fall, generations of cultural footprints are revealed, and dormant ecological systems begin to stir once more.

Through sweeping visuals, thoughtful commentary, and a live discussion with Lyle and Craig, Crow Canyon invites you to consider the enduring resilience of Indigenous people and the heart of a landscape that beats beneath the surface of a reservoir.
