National Ribbon Skirt Day (January 4, 2024)

National Ribbon Skirt Day is celebrated annually on January 4th to recognize Indigenous traditions, culture, and fashion. The ribbon skirt, also known as the traditional skirt, is a long skirt adorned with colourful ribbons that represent the wearer's heritage, family, and community. 

The ribbon skirt is not just a piece of clothing, but a symbol of cultural identity and pride. National Ribbon Skirt Day is an opportunity to recognize the importance of Indigenous culture and to promote cultural awareness and understanding.
