Oneida Silverware Outlet Store

Oneida Day

Shako:wi Cultural Center – Shako:wi is named in honor of the late Richard Chrisjohn (Wolf Clan), Representative of the Oneida Indian Nation, whose name means "He Gives." The Center is an impressive, handcrafted, white pine log building filled with items and stories from the rich past and present of the Oneida People. A continuing theme of the Cultural Center is the role the Nation played as the first allies of the colonists during the American Revolutionary War. Also, a wide selection of Oneida crafts and art fill the log walls and many displays of Shako:wi. Free.
