The primary goal of the Homolovi State Park venue is to promote intergenerational learning of Hopi history and culture through the theme of cultural connections. Most of the large sites in the Park are very late in prehistory and are relatively close to the Hopi Mesas. Hopi elders have vivid memories that are passed down orally about the sites. Because of this close connection, Homolovi represents an ideal location to learn about Hopi’s cultural connection with the recent past. In addition, the Hopi Tribe has been in collaborative discussions with Park managers about assuming management of the Park. This allows an incredible opportunity for Hopi youth to be involved in management development plan for Homolovi State Park. Their perspective can help formulate how Hopi cultural resources are managed.
