For thousands of years, Indigenous communities have used clothing as a means of communication and expression. Among the Wampanoag, dress over the centuries speaks to a story of cultural resilience and adaptation in the face of an ever-changing world. Now, visitors can experience history beyond the 1620s with the new exhibit, “Threads of Identity: Wampanoag Clothing Across Generations” located in the Craft Center.

This exhibit features work curated and created by Indigenous staff and Native artisans from across the northeast, demonstrating the continuity of cultural knowledge and practices today. Contributing artist Shaking Reed Designs of the Akwesasne Mohawk Nation will be present in the Craft Center Saturday, October 10, and Sunday October 11, 11:00 am – 3:00 pm, during Indigenous Peoples’ Weekend. Specially commissioned to create post-contact Wampanoag regalia, reflecting the incorporation of European trade materials, she will share her artistic style, inspiration, and creative practice with visitors.

Access to all Indigenous Peoples' Weekend programs are included with admission to Plimoth Patuxet Museums. For a full schedule of events, please visit: https://plimoth.org/events/indigenous-peoples-weekend-2
