This year’s commemorative ornament celebrates Wahzhazhe Always, a visual statement for Osages near and far to reconnect and celebrate an enduring legacy. The launch of Wahzhazhe Always coincided with the Nation’s Sovereignty Day observance on March 10, 2023. Using the traditional name and spelling of Wahzhazhe, historically deduced to the interpretation and spelling of Osage after colonization and forced migration, is embraced by tribal members and amplified throughout the campaign. Daily use and visibility of Osage Orthography remains to be of the utmost importance to Osage Nation as an act of sovereignty and language education efforts. Each year, a new collectible ornament is designed to commemorate some aspect of Osage culture and history so that a grand tradition and collection can be passed from one generation to the next. All proceeds from the sale of this ornament benefit the charitable mission of the Osage Nation Foundation.
