About the Event

Sadly, we have had to cancel this program due to damage from Hurricane Ian.  

Please continue to check back for updates.

Over five hundred years ago, the Calusa Indians lived in the Charlotte  Harbor area of SW Florida. While most Indian cultures in the area at the  time thrived on agriculture, the Calusa’s main existence was based on  fishing. This program makes learning history fun and includes an  interpretive narrative on the Calusa Culture including their customs,  what they ate, how they made shells into tools and used palm fibers to  make fishing nets. Calusa are also very well known for their ceremonial  masks, and you’ll create your own from palm husks to take home after the program.
