Lenape: Cultural Continuity and Connection
This presentation explores the enduring presence and living traditions of the Lenape people, emphasizing the deep cultural connections that have withstood centuries of displacement, disruption, and change. Highlighting stories of survival, adaptation, and revitalization, it traces the continuity of Lenape language, ceremonies, values, and community ties from ancestral homelands in the East to present-day Lenape communities across the United States and Canada. Through historical insight, contemporary initiatives, and personal narratives, Lenape: Cultural Continuity and Connection invites audiences to understand the ways in which Lenape culture remains vibrant, resilient, and rooted in connection—to land, to ancestors, and to future generations.
Q&A and refreshments to follow.
