Onekorhà:ke Karì:ware: The Matters are in the Wampum
Saturday, May 20th | 1 - 3 PM
Presented by Rohsennase Dalton LaBarge, M.D. (Akwesasne Mohawk, Bear Clan)
"We are told that long ago Onekò:rha' (Wampum) were gifted to our people at a time of overwhelming social upheavals. What these Oronkwáhsa (strands of wampum) transmitted was a path forward out of loss; a blueprint for how we might find collective peace in a challenging world. "
This interactive session will explore wampum as a living practice; an intersection of material craft, storytelling, and a continuous revisiting of possible pathways to heal as individuals and communities.
Location - Classroom 1, Seneca Art & Culture Center
