This Indigenous Peoples Day, Prospect Park is honoring the history and resilience of the land’s first inhabitants through a powerful blend of art, storytelling and celebration in Brooklyn.

The Prospect Park Alliance and the Éenda-Lŭnaapeewáhkiing Collective (EL Collective) have joined forces to present “Eelunaapéewi Ehaptoonáakanal: Voices of Lunáapeew/Lenape,” a new video exhibition at the Lefferts Historic House running through Nov. 30. 

The exhibit, part of the ReImagine Lefferts initiative, features “video interviews with Lunáapeew/Lenape knowledge-keepers and culture bearers about their relationships to their ancestral homelands.”

George Stonefish, co-founder of the EL Collective and advisor for ReImagine Lefferts said the exhibit is meant to increase public understanding of the Lenape. 

“We are a nation who has been scattered to the winds because of the greed of not just the Dutch, but also the English after that and so forth, who chased us and massacred us for out land,” he said. “I want people to understand who the Lenape were and are, and the things we’ve given to modern culture that aren’t acknowledged.”

The exhibit honors the Lunáapeew/Lenape, whose name means “the ones who came from thought.” Their ancestral homelands, known as Lenapehoking, encompass what is now Brooklyn and much of the surrounding areas. The exhibition explores both their deep spiritual connection to the land and their enduring fight to preserve their culture in the face of centuries of displacement and colonization.

ARKVILLE — Learn about early Lenape traditions and modern basketry. Tap into contemporary Haudenosaunee high arts of beading, embroidery and fingerweaving, all presented by Catskills Folk Connection. 

On Friday, October 24, Catskills Folk Connection’s exhibit “Indigenous Delaware County: Lenape and Mohawk Fiber Traditions” will open in the Erpf Gallery at the Catskill Center. it is located at the intersection of State Highway 28 and  County Route 38 in Arkville. Turn up the driveway (past the bronze life-size cow) and proceed to parking in the back or park along Route 28.       

Displays will cover Lenape historical fiber use in structures and other practical applications such as cordage; fingerweaving of traditional Haudenosaunee sashes by contemporary artist Marilyn Isaacs (Tusarora/Mohawk); and raised-bead embroidered cushions, vases, and jewelry by Wilma Cook Zumpano (Akwesasne Mohawk).  There will also be a black ash splint basket that represents the sharing of traditions among Nations by Lenape artist Theresa Johnson. 

Fiber traditions were well-developed by the time the Lenape had contact with Europeans.  Justin Wexler, an ethnoecologist and scholar of Lenape history, traditions and language, will offer an illustrated talk at the Catskill Watershed Corporation’s auditorium,  November 22 at 1 p.m. illuminating the Lenapes’ uses of different native plants in their everyday life. 

On the first two weekends in November (actual days TBD), Wilma Cook Zumpano will be teaching up to seven participants how to create a project in raised-bead embroidery and Marilyn Isaacs will be teaching a similar number of participants to make a miniature fingerwoven project.  We expect to offer short public receptions for the artists at the end of their respective workshops.

SARANAC LAKE — George J. Bryjak’s book, “A Nation Born, A Homeland Lost: Native Americans And The Revolutionary War Era,” was awarded a Silver Medal in the history category by the Military Writers Society of America.

Bryjak’s reader-friendly work explores the four major wars Native Americans were involved in during the latter half of the 18th century: As France and England battled for control of North America in the French and Indian War, most of the Indians who fight side with the French.

Pontiac’s Rebellion — often called the first American Revolution — is a concerted effort by Native Americans to halt European expansion and safeguard their ancestral homelands.

From Pontiac’s Rebellion to the battles of Lexington and Concord, a shifting political landscape results in most of the Native Americans who fight in the Revolutionary War siding with the British.

The Treaty of Paris and birth of the United States results in Native Americans battling for their sovereignty once more in the Northwest Indian War.

Although many Native American nations were involved in these conflicts, Bryjak focuses on the six nations of the Iroquois Confederacy, the Lenape (Delaware), the Shawnee and the Cherokee.

One of the MWSA reviewers noted this “well-researched book includes maps, pictures and sources. Points of view in the book include the French, the British, the colonists or settlers, and the Native Americans. The extensive descriptions of the various tribes, including their territory, customs, beliefs and leaders, give the reader a Native American perspective that is missing from most other accounts of history in this time period.”

Lake Lenape provided the backdrop for a night of unity and reflection as the Water Lantern Festival brought the community together on Saturday evening.

The festival, part of a national series that takes place in cities across the country, drew hundreds of participants to Mays Landing. Guests enjoyed live music, food trucks, local vendors, and family activities including a scavenger hunt, before gathering along the shoreline for the main event.

At sunset, the crowd released decorated lanterns carrying handwritten notes, wishes, and prayers. The glowing display stretched across the lake, symbolizing hope, healing, and new beginnings. Each participant received a kit that included a biodegradable lantern and LED light, making the launch both safe and environmentally friendly.

The Water Lantern Festival is designed to be inclusive and family-friendly, with discounted admission for children. A portion of proceeds also goes toward local and international charities, adding another layer of purpose to the evening.

The sight of lanterns drifting together across Lake Lenape was a sight to behold and brought the festival to a memorable close.
