Learn the history and values of Michigan's first people and how our 12 federally-acknowledged Indian tribes use these teachings to shape the cultures of today.
It’s free and family-friendly, benefiting the Native American Student Association mission of sharing knowledge and culture of Native communities from around Michigan.
