The Nov. 6 program places a one-hour Navajo cultural performance between two separate talks by Shawn Price, on Route 66 and General William T. Sherman.
All times are local to the venue · America/Los Angeles
A Navajo cultural performance is the midpoint of a day that also ranges from Route 66 to General William T. Sherman. The Dine’ Tah Navajo Dancers perform at the Nevada State Museum on Friday, Nov. 6, 2026; the event listing says visitors may attend one part or stay for the full program.
Shawn Price leads the opening talk, which approaches Route 66 through the road’s history and the people and places connected to it. After the afternoon performance and a short interval, Price returns to discuss General William T. Sherman and his place in the history of the American West.
The listings give each talk its own session; they do not describe a single historical narrative tying the road, Sherman and Navajo culture together. That makes it easy to choose a subject that interests you rather than treating the full day as one continuous lecture.

The Nevada State Museum describes the Dine’ Tah Navajo Dancers as a group directed by Shawn Price, with dancing and singing in the program. Its broader description of their work includes both traditional and semi-contemporary performances, but the listing does not name the dances or songs planned for this date.
That background gives a sense of the group’s range, not a promise of particular pieces. The scheduled performance is one hour long.
