Native American Heritage Month may be past but you can still stop by the Hunt House on Sunday the 14th for your last chance to see a very special Indigenous exhibit. This exhibit includes artifacts unearthed and collected in the Sowams area and features loans from the Warren and Somerset Historical Societies. Members of the area’s largest tribal group, the Pokanokets, have been serving as docents and crafts people. A special thanks goes to Karen Cahir, Elsie Morrison and her family, Harry and Lee Edmonds and the Mayor’s Advisory Council On Indigenous Affairs for their guidance. What a wonderful thing to do while waiting for your hayride.

The entire Hunt’s Mills experience with its beautiful falls, rapids, and walking paths is a unique family experience. Go to ephist.org for further details.
