Cultural Exchange

How the Cultural Exchange works: Each participant is invited to bring a personal item that is meaningful to you, represents your organization, or reflects upon your heritage or culture. You’ll be asked to share its story and give it away.

Names will be drawn for presenters, then after its story is shared, another name will be drawn of the person who will receive the gift.

The Cultural Exchange event offers a unique way to learn about each other’s heritage and build meaningful connections, as well as offer the opportunity to share a piece of your personal history and to gain insights into the lives and traditions of fellow attendees.

Bill Quackenbush, Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin, presents the Cultural Exchange at last year’s conference.
