150th Anniversary of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868

[Dietmar]

The 150th anniversary of the signing of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868 is on April 29, 2018. The tribes of the Oceti Sakowin and surrounding areas are coming together to remember this important historical date in Lakota history.

The “Commemorating the 150th Anniversary of the 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie” event will take place over four days from April 28 – May 1, 2018 on the Fort Laramie site in Wyoming.

This four-day event will offer historical and contemporary education on the effects of the 1868 treaty on the tribal nations and their citizens.


I know that members of our message boards will attend the event and hope to get more information soon.
