To express their gratitude, the Pilgrims and Wampanoag shared an autumn harvest feast that is considered one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations.

The first thanksgiving
In 1620, 102 Pilgrims traveled from England to North America on the Mayflower and arrived in present-day Massachusetts in the winter. Half of the Pilgrims did not survive the first winter due to lack of food and shelter. The following year, in 1621, the surviving Pilgrims had their first successful corn harvest, which they celebrated for three days with the local Wampanoag tribe, who had taught the Pilgrims how to survive. This celebration is now regarded as the first Thanksgiving. It took over 100 more years for Thanksgiving to become an official national holiday, with Abraham Lincoln declaring the last Thursday in November as a national day of Thanksgiving in 1863.

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is a federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. It has been an official holiday since 1863 when President Lincoln declared it a day of thanksgiving and praise. The modern Thanksgiving traces its origins to a 1621 harvest feast shared between Pilgrims and Wampanoag Native Americans in Plymouth, Massachusetts. It is now celebrated as a time to give thanks at the close of the harvest season.
American culture
American culture developed over 10,000 years from the migration of indigenous peoples into North America and has been influenced by Native American, African, Asian, Polynesian, and Latin American cultures. It has unique social and cultural characteristics like music, art, cuisine, and traditions. The United States is ethnically and racially diverse due to large-scale immigration over its history. American theater was initially based on Western traditions but developed its own identity in the early 20th century led by playwrights like Eugene O'Neill, Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, and Edward Albee.

Thanksgiving is celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday of November. The tradition originated from a harvest celebration in 1621, where the English colonists and Wampanoag Native Americans shared a feast after the colonists' first successful corn harvest in Plymouth. It wasn't until 1863 that President Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a national holiday to be held each year on the last Thursday of November. In 1939, President Roosevelt set the date as the fourth Thursday of November to stimulate the economy during the Great Depression.
