Wampanoag Day at Aptucxet – Cancelled

Saturday, September 26

Wampanoag Day has been cancelled due to the significant coastal storm forecast to impact Cape Cod this weekend.

With heavy rain and strong winds expected, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Saturday’s event for the safety of our guests, presenters, performers, volunteers and staff.

This year would have marked the 25th anniversary of Wampanoag Day at Aptucxet, making this decision especially disappointing. Since 2001, Wampanoag Day has brought our community together to learn, share and celebrate Wampanoag culture and history alongside Wampanoag educators, artists, singers, dancers and friends.

We are grateful to everyone who planned to join us and to all of the participants who worked with us to prepare for this year’s event.

Please help us spread the word by sharing this cancellation with anyone who may have planned to attend.
