A long-standing cultural village at the state fair has adopted a new name that better honors its Indigenous heritage, marking a significant shift in recognition of its historical roots. The change comes after years of advocacy from Native American communities, who sought to reclaim and accurately represent their traditions within the fairgrounds. The new moniker underscores a broader effort to preserve and celebrate Indigenous culture while addressing past oversights. Visitors and organizers alike are encouraged to learn about the deeper significance behind the name change during their time at the fair.
