Veterans

The Citizen Potawatomi Nation Veterans Memorial serves to honor and exhibit the sacrifices our Wédaséjek (warriors) have made by telling the story of what it means to be a Bodéwadmi warrior. It is a living monument to our proud veterans and active-duty, currently commemorating more than 1000 warriors and service members.

The Cultural Heritage Center no longer accepts donations/loans during the Family Reunion Festival. Given the large amount of submissions made by Tribal members during the three day gathering, staff is unable to adequately process and adhere to the preservation needs of each collection.


The Collections and Research Division strives to provide the most appropriate care for our collections. Adhering to this policy, we cannot guarantee if or when an item(s) will be exhibited. Item(s) from our permanent collection are regularly rotated for exhibition.
