The Getty Center celebrates its fourth annual Indigenous Peoples’ Day on Saturday, October 11, 2025, with a free, family-friendly festival honoring Native cultures through art, storytelling, and performance. Presented in collaboration with The Chapter House, this year’s program highlights Indigenous creativity and the enduring power of community and narrative. It’s a full day of fun, hands-on activities to learn about Southern California’s vibrant Native American cultures.
“Storytelling is at the heart of who we are as Indigenous Peoples and it’s how we share our histories, carry our languages, and imagine our futures,” said Emma Robbins (Diné), Executive Director of The Chapter House. “We’re honored to join Getty in celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day through art, laughter, dance, and words that reflect both our resilience and our joy.”
