Strawberry
Thanksgiving Celebration
Native people celebrate Wutahum Wuyhan (strawberry moon) by giving thanks
for the first berry of the year. Listen to stories at 11 am, make a strawberry
pendant, shop for one of Mishki Thompson’s (Narragansett) spring bows for your
hair, and taste a traditional strawberry drink. Free with Museum admission, free to Museum members. Trudie Lamb Richmond and Candyce Testa are
recipients of the Southern New England Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Program,
funded by the National Endowment of the Arts and supported by the
Institute for Community Research and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
