Red Shawl Gala

Potawatomi Casino | Hotel
Doors open at 5PM
BUILDING COMMUNITY, HONORING LEGACY
For nearly two decades, the Red Shawl Gala has celebrated the strength, resilience, and spirit of the Native community while supporting the mission of the Gerald L. Ignace Indian Health Center. This year’s theme, Building Community, Honoring Legacy, recognizes the leaders, staff, partners, and families whose dedication has helped shape GLIIHC into the trusted community resource it is today.
Legacies are not defined by a single moment or individual, but by the communities they inspire. As we honor those who have helped build GLIIHC, we recommit ourselves to their vision of strengthening our community, preserving our culture, and ensuring that future generations continue to thrive.
