Stop by the Senate House grounds on Friday, August 8, from 2:00pm-4:00pm, to craft your own paper made Native American inspired Wampum! Wampum shells held great spiritual power for many Native Peoples, and presenting these belts made of ornate beads often symbolized a relationship of exchange during treaties and historical events. Site staff will host a craft table on our grounds where visitors to try their hand at making their own history inspired paper wampum belts. This family friendly drop-in activity is free, weather dependent and while supplies last.
