In honor of Indigenous Peoples’ Day (celebrated October 13, 2025), we wanted to highlight the incredible work the local Indigenous Association is doing right here in Fargo-Moorhead!
Formed in 2020, the Indigenous Association’s mission is to, “Unite, Connect and Strengthen the Fargo-Moorhead Indigenous community.” They regularly host events aimed to connect and educate their community, including weekly regalia making, craft nights, nutritional support for parents, Community Connection meetings, and community meals.
They seek to provide a safe place to connect and participate in cultural activities and events. Through education, awareness, advocacy, and respect, they strive to sustain indigenous programs for future generations.
They are again hosting a number of events to celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day, many of which help educate on the history and culture of Indigenous people and Native Americans.
