Thirteen years and running, it is time again for the annual American Indian Heritage Celebration at the North Carolina Museum of History. From 11 am to 4 pm this Saturday, November 22, North Carolina’s state-recognized tribes will gather at the museum and on Bicentennial Plaza and the State Capitol grounds to celebrate their heritage and culture as a part of American Indian Heritage Month. North Carolina has the largest American Indian population east of the Mississippi, and members from the eight tribes will be present: Coharie, Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, Haliwa-Saponi, Lumbee, Meherrin, Occaneechi Band of Saponi, Sappony, and Waccamaw-Siouan. Slide shows and video below the fold.
The Joel Lane Museum House is in need of your help.
