Programming is at the heart of our work to restore and revitalize Dakota culture at Owámniyomni. Through public events, cultural education, and creative engagement, we bring Dakota presence and values to the forefront in a place that has long been central to our people. Our programming is designed not only to inform, but to reconnect community—both Indigenous and non-Indigenous—with the living culture and history of this place.
From guided interpretive tours that share Dakota stories and perspectives, to our lifeways video series that highlights traditional practices like cooking, games and water stewardship, each program centers Dakota knowledge and experience. Every offering is a step toward cultural restoration, healing and visibility in our homelands.
