OSAGE CULTURAL CONNECTION SERIES | Running: Going on a run is an easy way to connect with the land while also focusing on one’s health. It is an activity that works on all aspects of the individual – including mental, physical, and spiritual -- as the runner concentrates on maintaining their breathing, pace, and endurance.

OSAGE CULTURAL CONNECTION SERIES | Women's Dressing: Properly carrying forward Osage culture requires being meticulous and mindful of what is presented. No detail is too small to overlook. This video includes Osage women’s dressing for the InLonShkah, as well as an Osage wedding coat. Wedding coats were traditionally used for wedding ceremony, but are now utilized in paying for the drum ceremonies or given as a special gift. The original coats were actual military coats from the 1700s and are now replicated from that era. 

OSAGE CULTURAL CONNECTION SERIES | Peaches: Candied peaches are considered an Osage delicacy. Historically, fruit was not easy to come by, having candied peaches was a real treat. Seasoned with “Red Hot Candies” currently, in the past they may have used cinnamon or clove. Traditionally Osage cooks prefer brass kettles to cook candied peaches. About the series: The Osage Nation Cultural Center and Language Department have collaboratively created a series of videos dedicated to sharing, preserving and celebrating the values, teachings and tribal ways of the Wahzhazhe people. Special thanks to the Osage cultural team for making this series possible.
