In place of Columbus Day, Seattle City Council rightly recognizes the first Monday in October (today, October 8) as Indigenous Peoples’ Day, which honors Native cultures and communities in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. From special events to continuing exhibitions, there are many ways to discover local tribal traditions, see Native artwork and performances, and learn about current issues faced by Native communities. See all of the events happening today and this week below, and find even more events on our community calendar.
