Join us for the 4th Annual Akwesasne Freedom School Benefit
White Feather Farm
September 13, 2025 | 6–9 PM
Hosted by Panther Mountain
An evening of music, food, and community rooted in Indigenous sovereignty, cultural revitalization, and collective support.
This annual benefit uplifts the Akwesasne Freedom School — a Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) language immersion school located in Akwesasne Territory. Founded and operated by the community, the school receives no state or federal funding, relying on grassroots support to carry out its mission of Indigenous-led education, language renewal, and land-based lifeways.
The evening will feature:
Address and Performances by
• Akwesasne Youth Dancers
• Elder Tom Porter (Sakokwenionkwas)
• Bear Fox
• Kontiwennenhá:wi (Akwesasne Women Singers)
• deerlady (Mali Obomsawin & Magdalena Abrego)
🍲 Food by Joust
🌿 offerings, community connection, and opportunities to learn more about the Freedom School’s impact.
This benefit brings together artists, elders, and allies to celebrate and directly support the cultural survival of the Kanien’kehá:ka people. 100% of proceeds go to the Akwesasne Freedom School’s operating costs.
Come be part of this growing movement of solidarity, healing, and cultural sovereignty.
