Favorite Aziza Questions:
Have Aziza Always lived in Palmer Park?
No one knows for sure. The earliest recorded siting of an Aziza homestead was in 1884 when workers were clearing the space for the Palmer's log cabin. Originally the cabin was going to be set in the woods, but when the Aziza Village was spotted the senator kindly decided to move his home over by Lake Francis in a clearing, so as to avoid disturbing the existing village.
What's the best time of day to find Aziza?
Most Aziza are highly private, and even when they are wandering the woods it is almost impossible to spot them. We are told that they don't mind being around people, it's just that they would rather not be seen. If you sit on a log near one of their homes and close your eyes, you might just feel one land on your arm or your leg. If you do feel one, tell her a short story as stories are the most valuable thing in the Aziza culture. Keep your eyes closed and listen carefully when you are done, and you might get rewarded with an Aziza tale! If you do hear one of their stories, please send it to us so we can share with others.
Please warn the Aziza before opening your eyes so as not to frighten them.
How can we help keep Palmer Park Aziza friendly?
The Aziza Village was created by the People for Palmer Park with the support of a grant from CDAD. Doors were decorated and designed by children and families at our Magic of Art in Palmer Park program. This program is currently not funded for the year, so a donation to the People for Palmer Park in the name of your favorite Aziza will help us to host more art projects.
