Celebrating Indigenous HeritageJoin us in Downtown South Orange for a special celebration of Indigenous Peoples' Day on Monday October 14 at 5 PM in Spiotta Park!
We’re honored to host the Red Blanket Dance Troupe, who will be sharing their rich cultural heritage through powerful and beautiful performances. The Red Blanket Dance Troupe is a Native American dance group primarily composed of citizens from the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation. Red Blanket is a family-based troupe that includes members from the Haliwa-Saponi, Tuscarora, Mohawk, and other tribes, all while remaining deeply rooted in their traditional teachings and stories. Through their performances, the Red Blanket Dance Troupe uses both language and dance to inspire and encourage the younger generation to connect with and preserve their cultural heritage. |
