Music For The Water: On Madeline Island – Jul 12
July 12, 2025 @ 2:00 pm – 7:00 pm
Join us July 12th for another revival of Madeline Island, a vision of good will for all nations and people to come celebrate with a colorful offering of regional art, music, and camaraderie.
Music throughout the day.
For over 10,000 years Madeline Island was the place for Indigenous vendors traveling waterways of North America, from Niagara Falls in the East to the Columbia River in the West. Moningwaane’akaaning was a crossroads of historic empires and civilizations.
Once the Council Grounds capital of the Ojibwe Nation, the island hosted fishing camps, ancient villages, games of chance, la crosse and snow snakes, agricultural and trade markets, an abundance of food and medicine from the woods, dugout/birchbark canoe construction, and seasonal events from treaty payouts and great festivals of song, dance and celebration.
