White Snake Projects has announced the launch of “Indigenous Stories,” a new augmented reality experience.

The project is a self-guided augmented reality walking tour taking place throughout Boston and along the Freedom Trail. The tour takes participants across landmark and features original music and lyrics by Wampanoag, Nipmuc, and other Native American artists living in Massachusetts.

Beginning at the Boston Harbor Islands Pavilion on Long Wharf and ending on Boston Common, the 1.2-mile-long tour traces Indigenous history through six stops. Each stop features a written narrative and original three-minute musical performance inspired by and/or about the historical event that took place there. All media was made by Native creators.

In a press release Cerise Lim Jacobs, artistic director of White Snake Projects said, “Indigenous Stories” is White Snake Projects’ contribution to America’s 250th anniversary — and a deliberate intervention in that conversation. As the nation marks its founding, we recognize that one essential voice is missing: the Indigenous voice. We ask users to not only walk this path as tourists, but as witnesses, connecting us to our past and recognizing the central role Native Americans played in the foundation of Boston.”

The free app was developed in partnership with the North American Indian Center of Boston, produced and commissioned by White Snake Projects.

“Indigenous Stories” runs June 29 through Dec. 31.
