The Native American Student Association, Special Assistant to the President and the Dennos Museum Center are hosting a special dinner in celebration of Native American Heritage Month featuring guest chef Sam Anglin of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe.
Chef Sam artfully combines indigenous traditions with contemporary tastes. He has previously served as the Head Banquet Chef at the world-class Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort, and led the kitchen at Andahwod Continuing Care Community and Elder Services on his reservation for over a decade. Sam has traveled across Turtle Island to exchange food knowledge at Intertribal Food Summits alongside other indigenous culinary visionaries. Whether hunting, fishing, foraging, or crafting a heartfelt meal, his commitment extends beyond the professional kitchen. He believes in nurturing connections through food and cooks for traditional ceremonies, pow-wows, and private cooking demonstrations, helping to spread the healing message of reconnecting with ancestral foods.
The dinner will be held on Tuesday, November 12 from 4:30-6 p.m. in the Hawk Owl Café. The meal will cost $7.00 for students and $14.00 for community members.
