Giiwedinong is the Anishinaabe word for “in the north.” It also means ‘homecoming’ to the Anishinaabe people.
Our Vision
The vision of Giiwedonong is Mino Bimaadiziiwin (to live “the good life”) for all Indigenous peoples as given by the Creator and as carried by generations behind and ahead. Our cultural knowledge is grounded in our relationship to Akiing, the land to which we belong.
Our Mission
The Mission is to honor, empower, and inspire Anishinaabe and Dakota through immersive exhibitions, dynamic public programs, and transformative education. We will ignite awareness, foster respect, and drive meaningful change.
