We will be celebrating Native American Heritage Month throughout November by sharing more Duwamish facts and educational materials.

This generated map depicts the proposed location of the 640-acre reservation for the Duwamish Tribe in the late 1860s.

Historical records show that 156 settlers signed a petition in 1866 to block the reservation from being established.

These decisions, made by non-Native people about our Duwamish ancestors, affect us to this day.

The event is put together by 3 intermittent staff members and many volunteers. If you are unable to attend we would appreciate donations and more volunteers for next year.
