Stop into one of our eight locations this month to try the matching game in-person and enter to win a grand prize.

Our world is a beautiful, diverse mix of people and cultures with distinctly different ways of life. Indigenous Peoples nurturing deep roots in their homelands have fought throughout history for their sovereignty and right to tend to their native lands. In the U.S. Indigenous People’s Day is observed on the second Monday of October.

Indigenous People’s Day is about celebrating the unique cultural stories of Indigenous Peoples around the world, and bringing light to their struggles to maintain their cultural identities.  

Complete the in-person map matching game to be entered for a grand prize!

Activity available from October 1- October 31, in person and online as a virtual program.
