What is the Pow Wow Gathering of Nations?
The pow wow Gathering of Nations is an annual pow wow held each year in Albequerque, New Mexico. Native Americans from many different tribes come to share in the celebration of heritage and traditions. It is a way for Native Americans to connect with each other while keeping their culture alive through dance, song and storytelling. The pow wow Gathering of Nations provides opportunities to educate non-natives about Native American culture and traditions. The Gathering of Nations is only one of many pow wows held each year, the majority of which are held between Memorial Day and Labor Day throughout the US and Canada. They are an important part of Native American life and a lot of fun for all who attend. For information about the Pow Wow Gathering of Nations and other pow wow events, see our Native American Pow Wow Calendar.
