Land Acknowledgement Statement

The Green Bay Fringe Festival acknowledges that the land on which we gather is the ancestral home of the Menominee and Ho-Chunk Nations, they call Green Bay, Teehoikšek (Ho-Chunk) and Pūcīhkit (Menominee). We recognize the enduring significance this place holds for these Indigenous communities and their rich cultural traditions, vital art-making and deep connection to the land.

As a festival that celebrates artistic expression and fosters dialogue, we encourage our audiences to learn more about the history and ongoing contributions of the Menominee and Ho-Chunk Nations in Teehoikšek, Pūcīhkit, Green Bay.
