HARVEST MOON FESTIVAL
HARVEST MOON FESTIVAL
The Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum, at 18 Highlawn Road in Warner is holding a family-friendly event on Sunday, September 29 from 10-4. Harvest Moon Festival is a Native American celebration of the harvest, the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. Harvest Moon is about more than just crops and food, it is a celebration of a season’s worth of hard work throughout the community.
Visitors will learn how to make dolls from corn husks, weave dreamcatchers, try their hand at beading and enjoy sensory-friendly activities and games. Dramatic stories about the harvest will be told at the tipi. Join in on a scavenger hunt throughout our medicine woods trail to discover how plants would be traditionally used. Discover more about coyotes and how we can live in harmony with them from Chris Shadler’s presentation “Project Coyote”. The entire family will savor the taste of Native foods that will be available, like the ever-popular Hidatsa bison stew.
