2023 Native and Indigenous Heritage Month

In recognition of Native and Indigenous Heritage Month (NIHM), St. John’s University’s Office of Multicultural Affairs has organized a multicampus celebration with the theme, “Embracing the Elements.” This year we explore the significance that different elements hold across various Native and Indigenous cultures and invite our guests to learn how to better take care of the environment. NIHM pays tribute to and honors the rich and diverse cultures, legacy, traditions, histories, and contributions made by Native American and Indigenous individuals and communities. 

We invite you to join in the University community’s celebration of Native and Indigenous Heritage Month (also known as National Native American Heritage Month), which is nationally celebrated in November. 

We continue to offer virtual, hybrid, and in-person access to our cultural inclusion programming. To accommodate all in-person and virtual needs of our guests, we ask that attendees register for each event.
