Albuquerque is a city of rich history and cultural diversity. Celebrate our community’s past by honoring those whose ancestors have lived in the area for long before we became a nation. Head to the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center (2401 12th Street NW) on Monday, October 10th, for the Indigenous Peoples’ Day Celebration. The event takes place all day from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm. Songs, dances, and stories will be performed by students of the Native American Community Academy (NACA) to honor and share their heritage with all guests of the museum. The students of NACA have worked hard putting together their performances in order to express what it means to them to be indigenous. Learn more about the people that have inhabited this land since ancient times and celebrate the future of this rich community.
