Join us at the Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum, at 18 Highlawn Road in Warner on Sunday, September 28 from 10pm-3pm for our annual family-friendly Harvest Moon Festival. The 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.
The day will include the opportunity to make dolls from corn husks, sweet grass braids and also beading. There is also a special activity for just the kiddos to complete! Enjoy watching the art of basketmaking, a demonstration by a flintknapper and learn the process of how acorn flour is made. There will be sensory-friendly activities and games. The entire family will savor the taste of Native foods, including the ever-popular Hidatsa bison stew. Thank you to the Yankee Farmer’s Market in Warner, NH for donating the buffalo for the Hidatsa stew. Tickets are available at the gate the day of the event.
