Posted 11/15/2024
Chef Deidre Mallow, Director of Culinary of Arts at Independence High School, alongside her sister, Dominique Burleson, have teamed up to coordinate their 3rd Annual Native American Heritage Month event! This event's programming included traditional Native American food prepared and served by the school's culinary students, an educational presentation, a silent auction, dancing, music, storytelling, and arts and crafts displays.
The theme of this year's Native American Heritage Month centers around protecting relatives, and in that vane all proceeds from this celebratory event will go to support @Not Our Native Not Our Native Daughters, an MMIW nonprofit that serves the indigenous community.
