Join The Committee, Make a Difference

Are you interested in joining the Indigenous Peoples’ Day Committee in Rochester, New York? We are a group of multicultural individuals and organizations who strategize and organize to recognize the second Monday of October as Indigenous Peoples’ Day in the City of Rochester, New York.

2022 was Rochester’s inaugural year in celebration whereas each year we continue to honor, celebrate and elevate Indigenous Peoples. Each year we plan a variety of activities that encourage understanding and appreciation of First Nations people and their traditions and culture all across Turtle Island, thus promoting the well-being and growth of the Rochester Indigenous communities.

There are many ways to get involved! From being a committee member, a sub-committee lead, an ambassador, a day of event volunteer, there is a place for everyone at the table.
