Join Gwinnett County in celebrating Native American Heritage Month this November. The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners will present a proclamation during the November 18 Public Hearing to honor the rich heritage, culture, and contributions of Native American and Indigenous peoples. Immediately following the proclamation in the auditorium, a community reception will be held in the atrium.
See pictures from previous Native American and Indigenous Peoples Month celebrations.
The proclamation and reception will follow the theme, Circle of Togetherness, which evokes powerful concepts of unity, belonging, and connection. Rooted in the symbolic meaning of the circle, the theme reflects important values in Native and Indigenous cultures, including life cycles, community, and the interconnectedness of all things.
The theme also emphasizes the spirit of family that exists both within us and all around us, while inspiring personal growth and community building. Aligned with our vision of One Gwinnett, the circle serves as a reminder that we are stronger when we honor our shared values and embrace the bonds that connect us.
