Northwestern's Native American and Indigenous Student Alliance is hosting its 4th annual Traditional Spring Pow Wow at the Welsh-Ryan Arena.
A Pow Wow is a family-friendly, intergenerational cultural celebration held by many Native and Indigenous communities. This event is open to all and is a space for Native and non-Native people to gather together to dance, eat, socialize, share art, be in community, and much more.
ALL ARE WELCOME!!! OPEN TO ALL!!
FREE TO ATTEND!!
Never been to a pow wow before and are curious about what a pow wow is or what to expect? Join us virtually, over the lunch hour on April 30th for a Pow Wow 101 workshop with Dave Spencer (Mississippi Chahta/Diné) from Oka Homma Singers. You'll learn about the basic elements of a pow wow, general etiquette, and have an opportunity for open Q&A.
