Every year, during the Christmas and New Year season, the Huni Kuin community comes together for a deeply spiritual and cultural event—the Ikamuru Shuku Shukuwe Festival, held at the Aldeia São Joaquim Memory Center (IKACM) on the shores of the Jordão River in Acre, Brazil.

The festival is more than just a celebration—it is a transformative journey. Participants are invited to experience the ancient traditions of the Huni Kuin people, including:

• Traditional Diets: A four-day corn-based diet is observed, followed by herbal baths and Rapé and Ayahuasca ceremonies.
• Sacred Singing: The Huni Kuin sing for the heavens, the earth, animals, ancestors, and the spirits of the forest in a powerful cultural expression.
• Body Painting: Using natural materials like jenipapo and urucum, the sacred Kene drawings are painted on the body to beautify, protect, and connect participants to the cosmos.
• Workshops: Visitors can participate in hands-on workshops, such as creating straw mats and traditional objects under the guidance of Huni Kuin women artisans.
