The Wampanoag have lived in southeastern Massachusetts for more than 12,000 years and were the first tribe encountered by the passengers of the Mayflower. An integral part of America’s earliest beginnings, and a voice largely silenced in the colonial narrative, join us for a celebration of both Wampanoag history and culture. Dressed in traditional clothing and accompanied by water drum and handcrafted rattles, the Wampanoag Nation Singers and Dancers perform Eastern social songs and dances with audience participation.

About the Wampanoag Nation Singers and Dancers

The Wampanoag Nation Singers and Dancers are a group of musicians and artisans from the tribal communities of Mashpee on Cape Cod and Aquinnah on Martha's Vineyard. Their performances of eastern social songs and dances have both educated and entertained audiences of all ages in museums, schools, and various multi-cultural events.
