We welcome you with the Ganönyök. Then we begin our walk together starting with the Creation Story and the cultural beliefs of the Onöndowa’ga:’ and through displays of traditionally crafted items of everyday practical use and for ornamental purposes. We take you back in time with a walk through an authentic Seneca log cabin that was preserved and assembled in our museum. We tell the story of Dewa’ë:ö’ “Lacrosse” our medicine game, which was played to help lift the spirits of our Seneca elders.
