The Mashantucket Pequot Museum and Research Center will strengthen Pequot Culture to honor and serve our Tribal family and friends.
Balance – we value our past which gives us the opportunity to honor our ancestors in an effort to become ancestors worth descending from.
Decolonization – we value and honor the opportunity to continue to decolonize our community, culture and institutions.
Trust – we value trust, in the creator, in each other and the path we are on.
Relationship – we value all of our relationships, within our communities, the water, the land and all of our relatives.
