Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8: 11 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Celebrate Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) culture — past and present — with artisans from the community. Learn first-hand about the tradition of making cornhusk dolls, jewelry, bead work, and baskets from local Haudenosaunee artists as they bring the traditions of their culture to life through their art. Hear storytellers and join RMSC educators to learn more through the Museum’s world-renowned collection.
With staff and volunteers, get an up-close view of artifacts rarely on display for the public, including art from the Works Progress Administration (WPA) Indian Arts Project. Immerse yourself in the vibrant art and culture of today’s Haudenosaunee nations.
This program is funded by the New York State Council of the Arts (NYSCA).
