Join us as we travel by bus to the Ziibiwing Center in Mt. Pleasant, MI. The Ziibiwing Center is a comprehensive museum operated by the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe. This trip will include cultural presentations about the effect of colonization and the American Indian boarding school era. We will also take a guided tour of the facility, learn more about Indigenous culture from docents at the Center, and explore their outdoor garden. Finally, there will be time to browse in the gift shop, which includes handmade items made by people of the Chippewa Tribe. A boxed lunch will be provided by Calvin Catering. Please choose either a regular lunch, which consists of a turkey and provolone croissant, a fruit item, a chip item, and a dessert, or a plant-based lunch which consists of a mezze grain bowl, a fruit item, and a dessert item.
