The Lanterman Historical Museum Foundation celebrated the native landscape of the Crescenta Cañada Valley with a free outside event at the Lanterman House on Sunday, Nov. 7. The event was highlighted by a land acknowledgment ceremony, which recognized the Gabrielino Tongva people as the traditional stewards of the Crescenta Cañada Valley, and affirmed their enduring relationship with the land.

Activities at the event included a Native American flute performance, food samples made from native plants and a craft table where visitors could make ornaments out of locally grown white sage.

The Lanterman House is located at 4420 Encinas Drive in La Cañada Flintridge.
