Celebrate Native American Heritage Month with the Free Library

Posted by Free Library of Philadelphia on November 10, 2026

This November, honor the rich histories, vibrant cultures, and lasting contributions of Native American communities. Explore Indigenous stories, discover educational resources, and participate in special programs at the Free Library throughout the month.

November is Native American Heritage Month, a time to honor the rich histories, diverse cultures, and ongoing contributions of Indigenous peoples. The Free Library, located on the ancestral lands of the Lenni-Lenape people, is proud to recognize this month by celebrating Indigenous heritage and highlighting the voices, stories, and perspectives of Native communities past and present.

While November provides a special opportunity for recognition, learning from and uplifting Indigenous voices is important year-round. Through literature, cultural resources, and community programming, we invite you to explore the traditions, experiences, and contributions of Indigenous peoples.
