The Choctaw Cultural Center wrapped up 2025, a year full of memorable events, hands-on workshops and strong community turnout, and is carrying that same energy into an exciting lineup for 2026.
From stickball clinics and curator talks to seasonal celebrations and cultural workshops, 2025 brought visitors together to learn, create and celebrate Choctaw history and traditions. Families, youth and elders alike filled the center throughout the year, reinforcing its role as a welcoming place to connect with culture in meaningful and fun ways.
Here are a few events planned for the next few months that Biskinik readers can add to their calendars.
February kicks off with a Fry Bread Workshop on Feb. 14, followed by a Curator Talk on Feb. 20 and Cinema at the Center on Feb. 28.
March brings one of the center’s most popular events, the Choctaw Irish Friendship Festival on March 13-14, along with a Youth Stickball Clinic on March 19, a Curator Talk on March 20, the Easter Eggstravaganza on March 21 and Cinema at the Center on March 28.
April wraps up the spring schedule with a Women’s Stickball Clinic on April 4, a Fry Bread Workshop on April 11, a Curator Talk on April 17 and Cinema at the Center April 25.
Between special events, visitors can also participate in creative, hands-on workshops. Mini Woven Elbow Basket workshops and Beaded Heart workshops are scheduled throughout February. Woven Textile Bags and Windy Month Windmills workshops will be offered on Fridays and Saturdays in March and April.
The fun continues later in the year with a Fourth of July celebration on July 4, and a major milestone as the Choctaw Cultural Center celebrates its fifth anniversary from July 23 to 25.
With a growing calendar and something for all ages, the Choctaw Cultural Center is looking ahead to another year of learning, laughter and cultural connection.
