Sat 4/23-Sun 4/24 @ 10AM-5PM
Hale Farm and Village in Bath is known for its reproduction of the lifestyle of 19th-century settlers in Ohio: primarily white people who arrived in the Great Lakes region from the east coast.
This weekend, however, it’s honoring the culture, lifestyle and arts of those who had already been here for thousands of years, during its first-ever two-day Native American Cultural Weekend to be held at Hale Farm and Village.
It will look at the customs of groups such as the Shawnee, Seneca and Onondaga, with educators from those nations doing presentations and demonstrations of traditional storytelling and skills such as bow making, flint knapping and porcupine quill embroidery. You can also learn about the history and archeology of the Cuyahoga Valley, offering an entirely different look at the region from the one Hale Farm and Village usually presents, discovering a deeper and richer history.
Admission is $12 for adults, $6 for kids ages 3-12. For a complete schedule, go to wrhs.org/signature-events/.
