In honor of Native American Heritage Month, Seneca Resorts & Casinos invites the community to come together for an evening of celebration, culture, and community. This Community Social and Dinner is an annual event, a cherished tradition, will be held on Friday, November 15, from 5-8pm at the Seneca Allegany Event Center (777 Seneca Allegany Blvd, Salamanca). Admission is free, making it a welcoming experience for all who wish to attend.
Native American Heritage Month is a time to recognize and honor the rich traditions, history, and contributions of Native American communities across the country. Seneca Resorts & Casinos is dedicated to creating a space where people can come together, learn about, and experience the cultural heritage of the Haudenosaunee people and other Native communities. This event is a chance for attendees to connect with area Native culture through music, dance, art, and storytelling.
The evening will be filled with traditional Haudenosaunee social songs and dances, performed by talented dancers and musicians from the community. These are not just performances; they are expressions of cultural identity, history, and communal values. Guests will have the chance to join in and participate, experiencing the rhythm and unity that these dances bring. Each song and dance carries its own story and significance, offering a glimpse into the vibrant heritage of the Haudenosaunee people.
In addition to music and dance, the event will feature a diverse array of Native artisans and craft vendors. Visitors can explore handcrafted items that reflect the artistry, skill, and creativity of Native cultures. From intricate beadwork to contemporary attire and jewelry, each piece is a unique expression of cultural heritage passed down through generations. These artisans take great pride in their work, preserving techniques and styles that have been used for centuries.
The Community Dinner & Social is more than just an event; it’s an opportunity to foster understanding, appreciation, and solidarity. Whether you’re a regular attendee or new to Native American cultural events, this gathering provides an inclusive space to connect with others and celebrate the contributions of Native communities.
