American Indian Heritage Month is observed from Nov. 1 through Nov. 30. During this time, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) celebrates and recognizes the intertribal cultures and takes the opportunity to educate the public about the heritage, history, art, and traditions of American Indians and Alaska Natives. Furthermore, we respect and honor tribal sovereignty by working on a Government-to-Government basis with Tribal Nations to protect and enhance tribal natural resources. To this end, NRCS dedicate a poster every year from the artwork of an American Indian artist to celebrate American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month in November.
