Get hands-on with Choctaw culture this October!

Our monthly workshops offer opportunities for both kids and adults to learn about traditional skills, history and ways of life through creating.

🏺 Children's Workshop: Clay Bowl
- Saturdays at 10:30 a.m.

Pottery has a long history in the Choctaw homelands. Clay pottery made it possible for ancestral Choctaw communities to prepare foods through methods such as boiling, and hands-on arts and crafts have long been used to pass lessons on to younger generations.

🍲 Adult Workshop: Chahta Shuti
- Fridays and Saturdays at 1 p.m.

Learn about the shukti, a Choctaw cooking pot traditionally used to simmer stews, then put your own pottery skills to work creating one. The workshop connects to Hoponi Hvshi, or “Cooking Month,” in the traditional Choctaw calendar.

Space is limited, register now!
