2026 Indigenous Peoples' Month

On the Second Monday of October (this year, Monday, October 12th, 2026), we celebrate alongside many communities, Indigenous Peoples' Day. At Dartmouth, the Native American Council recognizes Indigenous Peoples' Day through reflection, advocacy, programming, and community engagement throughout the months of October and November. Find our 2026 calendar of events including Forgotten Founder screenings, the annual Indigenous Peoples' Fashion Show, and several cultural and educational workshops.
