Choctaw-Irish Friendship Fest
Choctaw Cultural Center 1919 Hina Hanta Way, Calera, OK, United StatesJoin us on March 16, 2024, as we celebrate our continuing bond with the Choctaw-Irish Friendship Fest. In 1847, the Choctaw people heard of the potato famine in Ireland and raised $174 to help the Irish. That single act of selfless generosity sparked an unlikely friendship between the Choctaw Nation and Ireland.
