Longmont will host its Native American Heritage Month celebration Nov. 14 at the Senior Center, 910 Longs Peak Avenue. The city’s Oct. 29 announcement lists a free, all-ages program from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The plans include Native dancers and drummers, food, family activities and a teepee outside the center. A screening of People of the Sacred Land is to be followed by a community discussion. Organizers describe the gathering as an opportunity to learn about Native cultures, history and community life.
The Native American Heritage Month Committee, Friends of the Senior Center, Friends of the Library and city Children, Youth and Families and Open Space programs are among the sponsors. The event is distinct from the Longmont library’s separate Nov. 20 powwow program.
