Join us in celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Explore corn's role in indigenous cultures and learn about its versatility as a food and art material. Tie, weave, and shape dried husks to make your own figurine.

At 11:30AM families can enjoy a special storytime program in the Gund Theater, all ages welcome. We will be celebrating Indigenous People’s Day with a reading of the book When the Shadbush Blooms by Carla Messinger.

Registration not required.

The restroom on the ground level is all-gender and ADA-compliant. Additional ADA-compliant restrooms are available on the lower level, which can be accessed by elevator.
