Redbird’s 2025 Children of Many Colors Native American Powwow
May 31 @ 11:00 am - June 1 @ 6:00 pm
FREE
A powwow is a Native American cultural celebration. Community powwows are important social and cultural events, weaving together the lives of native people across an urban fabric. Redbird’s powwow is an intertribal gathering which prides itself in creating a friendly and supportive atmosphere for both participants and visitors.
A powwow includes singing, dancing, drumming, traditional music, arts, crafts and food. Throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday there will be intertribal dances. During these sets of songs, guests are welcome in the dance arena. There are some dress and conduct guidelines and you probably are familiar with them – revealing clothing is not appropriate for men or women, touching dancers’ hair, feathers or regalia is not okay, and children should not be allowed to run through the arena.
On Sunday morning around 11:30 AM there will be a Veterans’ honoring. All Veterans regardless of ethnicity or branch of service are welcome and encouraged to participate.
Redbird offers the powwow as an event that we hope bridges ethnic and socio-economic boundaries in a healthy way, without compromising its integrity as an indigenous cultural gathering.
There is no charge for admission, and everyone is welcome.
VETERANS FOR PEACE WILL SET UP A BOOTH FOR THIS WEEKEND. PLEASE COME OUT AND JOIN US IN THE FUN!
