Good morning,

Hope you are doing well these days. The Sisyphean task of rolling your coursework boulder up midterm mountain is nothing to scoff at, so we at the Daily thought you should take a little news break. You know, brush up on things.

Today we have a feature piece on the Owámni Falling Water Festival, an analysis of the upcoming Gophers-Cornhuskers game and a new podcast episode about Gopher wrestling and the Homecoming game.

Go ahead. Read some news.

Buenas,

by Shay Scanlan | City Reporter | Published Oct. 15, 2025

After Monday’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day celebrations, Minneapolis is preparing for Saturday’s Owámni Falling Water Festival, a showcase of Indigenous culture, food and art.

This Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the Owámni Falling Water Festival will be hosted at Mill Ruins Park and Father Hennepin Bluffs Park, said Carrie Day-Aspinwall, the first-ever Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board liaison, who is opening the celebration.

The free festival features Indigenous-owned food vendors, arts and crafts vendors, performers and games. Day-Aspinwall said she is excited for it all — the vendors, the entertainment, and the overall extension of indigenous gifts and knowledge.
