Still Here! The Powhatan-Renape and the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape exhibition opening

October 12 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm | Noyes Arts Garage of Stockton University, Atlantic City

Saturday, October 12th from 1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.

Please join in celebrating two southern New Jersey tribal communities that share a common Woodlands culture, Algonquin languages, historical roots, eastern geographical locations, and above all a united commitment to preserving their past, present, and future Indigenous heritage and identity. The Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation is made up of the American Indian families from southern New Jersey and the Delmarva Peninsula. Powhatan people have maintained an unbroken history of thousands of years settlement along the coastal areas of the mid-Atlantic. This exhibition will feature art and historical artifacts from the two tribal communities. This exhibition is curated by Dr. Phoebe Farris, PhD.

The opening reception will offer light refreshments and live entertainment.
