Cultural & Heritage

Aho Mitakuye Oyasin.  The Lakota Sioux words, "We are all related," ring true in North Dakota.  You'll often see us celebrating all the things from our heritage that make us different, as well as all the things that make us alike.  At our American Indian powwows, we dance in a circle that honors this interweaving of cultures and the beautiful land connecting us.  At Scandinavian festivals we say, "Ja, sure," to that and start dancing in circles too.  Whatever your heritage, come join in our circle and celebrate with us.
