Heard Museum hosting special event for Indigenous People’s Day

The Heard Museum will celebrate Indigenous People’s Day, with a day full of activities on October 13th. The October 13th celebration will include dancing, since every tribal culture has its own form of dancing, and during the event, the museum will mix some traditional dancing with rock, pop, and country tunes. Guests can celebrate Indigenous resiliency, explore our lineup of world-class exhibitions, enjoy a bite from our award-winning Courtyard Café, and pick up a book on Indigenous art in the bookstore.

Patty Talahongva, Heard Museum Chief Programming & Engagement Officer and Marcus Monenerkit, Heard Museum Director of Community Engagement joined “Arizona Horizon” to talk more on the festivities, Indigenous People’s Day, and what the museum has to offer year-round.
