You’ll also find our ever-popular Iroquois Social Dancers, traditional hoop dancers, fascinating Native American Arts Market, Native foods, Iroquois storytelling, guided trail and longhouse tours, and much more. Don’t miss new hands- on fun in the Family Discovery Tent. Kids of all ages can mold “Ganonda-man” clay totems, discover the fascinating history of the Six Nations clans through storytelling and related animal crafts, participate in a “Ganonda-man” scavenger hunt and lots more.
