Vigil for Native Life

The Cincinnati Human Relations Commission in collaboration with Healing our Heartlands promotes the Vigil for Native Life on October 8th at 6:30. This event is presented by ARCHE-Arts Restoring Culture for Healing Earth and will be on the steps of City Hall.

The Native Life Vigil is a way to show reconciliation with Native Americans, their culture and way of life, naming October 8th First Americans Day.

First Americans Day was proclaimed last year by the honorable Mayor Mark Mallory on the same day as Columbus Day. The hope for this year is to make November Native American Heritage month in the city of Cincinnati.

Please join CHRC and  Healing our Heartlands on October 8 to celebrate First Americans Day on the steps of City Hall. The history of Native Americans will be read as well as the proclamation.
