Saturday, May 25, 2024 10:00 AM - 04:00 PM

Enter the Algonkian family through traditional roles and the customs of kinship and marriage. Decode the intertwined processes of captivity, adoption, and assimilation into a tribe for both Europeans and other Native Americans, with the trade and daily items of the period. Experience Algonkian hospitality with a traditionally prepared meal: brass kettles for boiling soups and making tea, wood splints for roasting fish and meat over coals, ash cakes cooked in coals and more!
