Annual Veterans Ceremony

Each year IAIS honors several local Native Americans who have served in the Armed Forces. This year, we will be joined by the Crow Hill Singers drum group led by Aaron Athey (Mohegan) based out of Uncasville, CT, who will provide honor songs to help recognize the veterans’ contributions. Join us for an outdoor ceremony to acknowledge the sacrifices of this year’s honorees as well as all veterans, Native and Non-Native, who have served our country. Following the ceremony, attendees are invited to enjoy some warm beverages and light refreshments.

We are pleased to announce that Tails of Joy, a Connecticut-based non-profit dedicated to providing animal assisted therapy, will have a canine ambassador on premises for portions of this event.

Please note: The ceremony, or portions of it, may move inside if there is rain or freezing temperatures, but participants should come prepared for an outdoor event.

This event is free and open to the public, but pre-registration is appreciated and donations are always appreciated. Please register online through our website. Questions? Please call (860) 868-0518 or email events@iaismuseum.org.
