Redhawk Native American Arts Council presents: Indigenous Peoples Day

This is a FREE 2-day event where Indigenous leaders, Elders, Medicine people, cultural performers and supporters from across the globe will celebrate the rich history, art and culture of Indigenous People. First Peoples from the Americas will once again convene to share their traditions, through song, dance, art, and prayer, while inviting all to rethink what was Columbus Day. As with all of our events, people from all races, ethnicities, religions, and backgrounds are welcome to attend. The celebration will feature performances, music, vendors, food, speeches from Indigenous activists and leaders, spoken word, and an evening concert to crown it all. Apart from the festivities, IDPNYC has highlighted important issues affecting local Native Americans. Sunshine Gumbs, a Shinnecock Tribal Citizen, hosted a Red Dress special honoring our missing and murdered Indigenous girls, women, and two-spirits.
