Two-time GRAMMY winner, Robert Mirabal, lives with his family at the foot of sacred Taos Mountain in northern New Mexico.
Maintaining a traditional life, keeping the centuries-old customs of the Taos Pueblo people, Robert has been described as a Native American "Renaissance man" - musician, composer, painter, master craftsman, poet, actor, screenwriter, horseman and farmer - and travels extensively playing his music all over the world.

If you live a traditional life you see things differently-spiritually and musically.

His first flute came when he was 18 with money he borrowed from his grand mother, and shortly afterwards he had the opportunity to meet Native American flute player R. Carlos Nakai who greatly influenced him.
When we met he looked at my hands and laughed. He said, I have that same scar. It's the scar of the flute maker.
In the years since, Robert has continued the evolution of his flute making and has also become a concert performer and recording artist. His dozen albums of traditional music, rock and roll, and spoken word present a contemporary view of American Indian life that is unequaled.

My music is informed by the ceremonial music that I've heard all my life. What I create comes out of my body and soul in a desire to take care of the spirits of the earth.

A leading proponent of world music, Robert has merged his indigenous American sound with those of Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, tapping into a planetary pulse with a style that defies categorization.

My travels have provided me with experiences that I could have never imagined, and exposed me to a global sound and a global voice.

Whether as a composer, songwriter or musician, Robert has won many honors including two-time Native American Artist of the Year, three-time Songwriter of the Year, a 2006 GRAMMY Award for Sacred Ground, and his 2008 GRAMMY for Johnny Whitehorse Totemic Flute Chants, blending all of Robert's influences into a musical landscape that conjures up both the historic and contemporary West.

His 2002 breakthrough PBS Special, Music From a Painted Cave is unsurpassed in Native American theatrical expression.                              

Robert Mirabal, has been one of the leaders of the Native Flute renaissance. Mirabal's style is more "traditional" and less commercial than many of his contemporaries, building his melodies on the rituals that have surrounded him all of his life at Taos Pueblo, where he was born and still resides. "My culture doesn't allow me to record anything traditional," Mirabal said by phone from the home he shares with his partner Dawn and their nine month old daughter. "What I create comes out of my body and soul, in a desire to take care of the spirits of the earth." (j.poet, music editor for Indian Artist Magazine)




Where “The Catcher in the Rye” meets “Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.” Reyes Wind has faith in the power of memory… and in her journey of self-discovery. A contemporary tale juxtaposed with historical, first-hand accounts of Indian life found only in memory— and snapshots— "Running Alone in Photographs" is the coming-of-age story of a young Native American musician who travels the world before returning to her ancestral home. This love story of an individual’s struggle between her tribal role and the modern world, and the courage and grace required to live fully in each, is the most intimate glimpse of contemporary American Indian life you will find today. Mirabal has storytelling in his DNA…

Robert Mirabel will be appearing at the Morrison Town Hall, built in 1896 by the Woodman of the World, this is an intimate venue, enhancing the magic and spirit of Mirabel's music and talents.
This event is sponsored by Collage, a place for creative expression and healing.

Tiles For Tails for EAPL

EAPL presents an exciting project for pet lovers in our community called TILES FOR TAILS. EAPL's goal is to cover the walls in Chow Down with unique and colorful hand-painted tiles while raising much needed funds to help needy cats and dogs in our community.




For a donation of $25 or more, you get to be the artist and create a hand-painted tile, which will be displayed in a permanent exhibit at Chow Down. This project is a perfect way to honor the memory of a beloved pet, paint a picture of your cute hamster, or let everyone know what a cat or dog lover you are!



EAPL is selling TILES FOR TAILS kits, which will have everything in them that you'll need to complete your project. When you've finished your tile, simply return it to Chow Down, and we'll get it up on the wall.



All tiles in the project must be purchased from EAPL. No advertising, phone numbers, or e-mail addresses on the tiles please. Contact kareneapl@aol.com with questions.

Seasonally Yours is a colorful shop that changes with the seasons The store is decorated in rich shades of gold, orange and red. This little shop, on Main Street, in the Heart of Evergreen is ready for Halloween, offering pumpkins, witches and other wonderfully frightful glasses hats and decorations. Janice had selects the merchandise which is fun, funky and colorful. Seasonally Yours unique gift items may change with the seasons, but one thing that never changes is their quality.


Janice worked within the floral industry in product development, marketing and merchandising. When a tiny shop space became available on Main Street she decided to make a dream a reality. Janice resigned from her corporate position and became a successful entrepreneur. It was a true leap of faith based on a sound business background.









Over the past five years, she has developed an ever-changing business and marketing plan. Seasonally Yours quickly out grew it’s tiny space, and when the opportunity presented itself for expansion Janice again choose to expand during the worst economic times since the great depression. Janice listened to her customers and added made to order Salt Water Taffy and home made fresh Fudge. Both the Taffy and Fudge flavors change with the seasons. Customer favorites available now include Pumpkin Praline, Grave Yard Mud and Gooey Cluster fudge. Taffy flavor favorites include of Pumpkin, Molasses and Maple. This made in Evergreen fudge can be shipped just about anywhere.



The shop was in need of an identity worthy of the fudge and taffy’s popularity. Fudgley, named by one of Janice’s younger customers, was born in the spring of this year. Fudgley is a whimsical ant with high top tennies and denim overalls. Fudgley can be found dancing about on the website www.seasonally-yours.com and on You Tube. Fudgley likes attention and now he wants his own Fanpage on Facebook.



For a sample of fudge, a unique gift for adults and children of all ages, or to be the best dressed for the Heart of Evergreen Halloween Walk stop by Seasonally Yours at 28135 Hwy 74, or phone 303-679-3110.

A Gluten-Free Tour with Johnny

Johnny is one of the people in my life that I see at least twice week. We exchange "hi, how are you", "beautiful day," etc. Johnny is always in the natural foods section at the King Soopers in Bergen Park (Evergreen, Colorado). Saturday Johnny was in the lobby with exactly what I needed. Recently I discovered I was gluten intolerant. I love breads, pastries, cereals, pancakes and crepes. I bake muffins every weekend, I have a sandwich for lunch everyday, and toast before bed. The first few days after learning I was gluten intolerant I discovered that most of the foods in my cupboard and frig contained gluten.
Johnny is a nutritionist and knew every item in the store that did not contain gluten. As he took me down each aisle he also pointed out foods that contain gluten, like soups, spaghetti sauces, and even some yogurts. In a short walk through King Soopers I learned so much about what to eat and general nutrition. I bought most of his suggested food items and he was right they are good.
Johnny has an extensive knowledge of healthy foods and vitamins and continues to take classes. He moved to Colorado from L.A. and is married to a chef. They met a few years ago and realized they had gone to Junior High together. (I love those kind of stories)
If you have a question ask Johnny, he's one of our mountain gems!
