Dade Battlefield Historic State Park will host an art class on October 12 from 10am to 12pm, taking native and natural elements to create garlands from berries. Wreaths of vines and pine blossoms will be created from this activity. A pre-registration is required, and the fee is $3.00 to enter the vehicle and $5.00 for the activity.

The Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum in Orlando has a permanent collection containing items related to the Seminole Tribe of Florida and, more broadly, to Native American populations of the southeastern United States. The Museum’s collections include historical newspapers, manuscripts, patchwork clothing, baskets, dolls, and various pieces of ephemera produced during the 20th century.

This is a great way to spend the Day of Indigenous Peoples, as it is a space that allows for information and reflection on the importance of these communities, as well as their social, symbolic and cultural richness.

Visiting the Art of the Ancient Americas Collection

The Orlando Museum of Art’s Art of the Ancient Americas Collection has more than 900 works of art including polychrome ceramics, carved jade and stone, gold and silver, and woven textiles.

Several cultures represented in the collection were active at the time of European contact in the early 16th century. The best known of these are the Aztecs of Central Mexico and the Incas of Peru. Also represented are many other cultures that thrived for long periods before disappearing or being absorbed by later civilizations.

Also at the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum, a short distance from the ceremonial grounds is the village of Seminole. The village is a modern version of the Seminole tourist camps that were popular in the early to mid-20th century.

Modern Seminole artists are often present and are more than happy to answer questions and demonstrate traditional arts and crafts. These crafts are also available for purchase. Due to circumstances beyond our control, such as inclement weather and tribal vacations, villagers may not be present at all times.
