The year dawns anew at Post Miami, a French colonial outpost situated beside the great Native American Village of Kekionga of the Myaamia Nation. The Old Fort will host French Colonial reenactors with displays of domestic life, the economics of the fur trade, and military life.
Come experience a day in the life of the early inhabitants of Post Miami. Observe reenactors participate in daily activities which would have occurred in the 1700s near what would become Fort Wayne, Indiana.
