SUMMARY:Nebizun: Water is Life Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Nebizun (alternately spelled Nebizon) is the Abenaki word for medicine and the root word Nebi is the Abenaki word for water. The rivers and tributaries of N’Dakinna (our homeland) were our highways for traveling and the water itself is important to the species of fish and other wildlife that is necessary to our way of life. As stewards of the environment Native American people know the importance of having clean water. The Abenaki people know and understand the importance of water in everyday activities related to foodways and healing powers of water. Nebizun: Water is Life draws its inspiration from Native American Grandmothers who have been doing water walks to pray for the water\, and from when the 50th anniversary of the Clean Water Act was celebrated. \n  \n \nVermont Abenaki Artists Association is supported by the New England Foundation for the Arts’ Cultural Sustainability program\, made possible by the Wallace Foundation.

SUMMARY:The Green Corn Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a shared meal and celebration with Chief Roger Longtoe and members of the Elnu Abenaki as they present the Green Corn Ceremony — a traditional celebration of gratitude\, renewal\, and the first corn harvest of the season. \n \nThe Green Corn Ceremony is a sacred and time-honored practice among many Native American communities. During this gathering\, the first ears of corn are ceremonially offered in thanks\, honoring the land\, the ancestors\, and the cycle of life. \n \nMore than a harvest festival\, this event is a powerful expression of cultural identity — a time to gather in community\, give thanks\, and pass traditions forward. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to experience a living tradition and share in a meaningful evening of storytelling\, ceremony\, and connection. \nDoors open at 5:30\, ceremony and dinner begin at 6 PM in the Common. We will move indoors in the event of rain.

SUMMARY:Explore to Learn: Art of Remembering: Songs of the Adirondacks
DESCRIPTION:Explore to Learn: Art of Remembering: Songs of the Adirondacks with Jesse Bowman Bruchac on Saturday\, August 16th\, 12:00–1:00pm!\n\n\n Free with a suggested donation! https://secure.lglforms.com/…/s/qKuPnxkpqeqYVVHd75eouw…\n\n\n Join Jesse for a music-centered workshop featuring songs of the Adirondacks\, weaving together Indigenous traditions\, language\, and the rich logging-era songs preserved in the Bruchac family.\n\n\n Accompanied by Native American hand drum\, flute\, rattle\, and the contemporary acoustic guitar\, Jesse will transport you through time with each melody. Stories—traditional\, folk\, and historical—will bring context to the music\, offering a deeper connection to the history of this land and one of its first Indigenous languages\, Algonquian.\n\n\n This workshop is for everyone\, no matter your age or experience. Bring your kids\, your grandparents\, or just yourself!\n\n\n A little bit about Jesse Bruchac! For three decades\, Jesse has been immersed in Algonquian language reclamation efforts. He is the founder and director of the School of Abenaki at Middlebury College and the Assistant Director of the Ndakinna Education Center. He first gained fluency in the Eastern Algonquian Abenaki language\, learning it directly from the last generation of first-language speakers in the 1990s. He has since worked in language reclamation efforts with several other Eastern Algonquian languages\, including Penobscot\, Lenni Lenape\, Delaware (Munsee and Unami)\, Mohican (Mahican)\, Mohegan-Pequot\, and Quiripi-Unquachog. He is currently involved in the reawakening of previously dormant Virginia Algonquian languages.
