Native American History Museum

Join the PBKNY Diversity and Inclusion Committee as we celebrate Native
American Heritage Month on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at 2:00 PM at the National Museum of the American Indian at the Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House, One Bowling Green. A post-museum gathering will follow at a bar (location TBD).

Due to the government shutdown,
the National Museum of the American Indian is temporarily closed. The
listed date is based on the expectation that the government will reopen
before then. If the shutdown is not resolved by November 1, 2025, the
date may be moved to November 15.

Stay tuned for additional upcoming events!
