Culture Day is Nez Perce National Historical Park’s most community driven event; an event about the Nez Perce people, for all people. The fun-filled day will feature dancers, drummers, tipi’s and a horse parade! The event will be held Saturday, May 18, 2019 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m in the Spalding Picnic Area.

Park ranger Vivian Wilson says, “Culture Day is a great way to experience another culture right in your own backyard.”
