In place of the annual in-person Learning to Walk Together Powwow, Northern Michigan University’s Native American Student Association presents Powwow 101: Learning to Walk Together (While Apart) on April 3rd, 1 - 3pm Eastern over Zoom and live streamed on our Facebook page @nmunasa.
This virtual, educational event will include speakers on different topics surrounding contemporary powwows. Framed much like a powwow’s grand entry, you will first hear the sounds of the Morning Thunder drum for an opening song, followed by talks on a range of topics from the importance of Veterans in Native American culture, regalia and beadwork, to providing tips on proper etiquette when attending a powwow. Virtual drum and dance demonstrations of different styles will also take place during the event. Zoom participants will have the opportunity to participate in a closing ceremony, by listening to the closing song and dancing along! If you have regalia, feel free to attend wearing regalia in preparation for this closing ceremony. We can all learn to walk together this way, while apart!
This is a free event. Zoom registration required. To register and for more information: tinyurl.com/nasapowwow101
