The Many Winters Gathering of Elders (MWGOE), 18th MWGOE, is scheduled for Thursday, October 10 through Sunday, October 13, 2024, from 11:00 a.m. to 6: 00 p.m. at Angels Gate Cultural Center (AGCC) in San Pedro, CA on Gabrieleno Tongva territory.

The MWGOE is a four-day gathering where Native/Indigenous Elders and knowledge-keepers from across the country gather to share teachings through oral tradition with the community. The Gathering also hosts Native ceremonies throughout the four days. MWGOE is held in partnership with AGCC, open to the public, free to attend and family friendly.

Elders from local tribes including Gabrielino Shoshone, Gabrielino Tongva, Acjachemen, Fernandeño Tataviam, Chumash, and other California tribes have attended in the past and will join this October. Tribal elders from other regions (Arizona, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Dakota and others) are expected, as well. The Gathering takes place under an arbor which serves as the traditional place of teaching and learning – where Elders pass on knowledge to the younger generation, and is part of intergenerational healing from historical trauma.
