In celebration of American Indian Heritage Month, children from across the region spent the day learning about American Indian culture and the Lumbee people. We extend our gratitude to all of the dancers, singers, drummers, Lumbee Ambassadors, Senior Ms. Lumbee Wendy Locklear, and the Culture Team for sharing their knowledge and talents during the annual Culture Day event.

Thousands of students attended two performances at the Givens Performing Arts Center, where they experienced engaging presentations that highlighted Lumbee history, culture, and traditions. Students also enjoyed demonstrations of traditional dancing, learned about Eastern Woodland tribal practices, explored language, and much more.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this year’s Culture Day a meaningful and memorable celebration. This event continues to be an important part of American Indian Heritage Month, promoting cultural understanding and pride throughout our communities.
