Kule Loklo

Kule Loklo

Kule Loklo ("Bear Valley") is a recreated Coast Miwok Native American village located in Point Reyes National Seashore, in Marin County, California. Kule Loklo was originally created in the 1970s by the "Miwok Archeological Preserve of Marin" (MAPOM) as a tribute to Marin County's indigenous people, the Coast Miwok Indians.

In 1992, the ceremonial roundhouse at Kule Loklo was destroyed by an arsonist; through an outpouring of community support, it was replaced with a larger roundhouse in 1993.

There is currently one annual public festival at Kule Loklo, the Big Time, held in late July, which features California Indian dancing and Native American crafts.
