S'edav Va'aki Museum (City of Phoenix) and Arizona Territory Gourd Society

S'edav Va'aki Museum, the City of Phoenix's archaeological museum and Hohokam village site, joins the Arizona Territory Gourd Society on Veterans' Day for a free Gourd Dance and Community Potluck honouring all veterans who have served the nation. Gourd dancing, a Native American veterans' tradition, begins at 11:30 a.m.; the gathering runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Families with school-age children can watch the dance, share in the potluck and talk with veterans, which makes it a meaningful way to mark the school holiday. The gourd dance and potluck are free for everyone; regular museum admission fees and discounts apply if you also tour the galleries and the outdoor ruins trail. Vendors take part by invitation only.
