Representatives of Lenapehoking Reestablishment will speak about the recent history and ongoing existence of local Tribal Communities, and the means in which they continue to thrive in their homelands. The conversation will include focus on Indigenous Youth and Arts, and the need to balance between both modern society and cultural worlds.
In addition, participants will create basic Gourd Rattles, utilizing gourds and beans, as well as hear stories of the origins of Lenape Bean Dance, and the rattle's place in that.
