All LA County Library locations will be closed on Monday, October 13 in observance of Indigenous Peoples' Day. Our Digital Library is available 24/7.
Join us in learning about frybread, a traditional Native American food that can be found at many Native tribal gatherings such as pow wows, intertribal Native dancing, birthdays, and celebrations of life.
Wildhorse Native American Association cook Susie Yellowhorse Jensen will provide a frybread cooking demonstration with samples to share. Susie is of the Navajo tribe and grew up on the Navajo reservation. Her family enjoyed cooking over fire sharing their foods, culture, and teaching survival skills to live off the land. After working in the growing Native American communities in the Los Angeles area, Susie is now retired and continues to give back to the community with her delicious cooking.
*Attendance is limited and advance registration is required.

Library service in Stevenson Ranch began in July 2011 with the opening of Stevenson Ranch Express Library. In March, 2015, a new Stevenson Ranch Library opened to provide a full service library to the West Ranch communities. Library service in the Santa Clarita Valley area began in 1916 with the establishment of the original Newhall Library. The Stevenson Ranch Library pays tribute to a century of service with a local history collection and the original editorial cartoons of the Randy Wicks Collection.
