Suscol Intertribal Council invites the community to come celebrate the lives and complexity of the regions First people! Tribes from this area as well as drums and dancers from many different tribes of North American will share tradition and culture.
Everyone is welcome to the beautiful grounds at Yountville Veterans’ Home Picnic Grounds to watch or participate in songs, drum and dance, and to enjoy the incredible beauty and joy of Native American culture. This 25th annual Pow-wow celebrates traditional Native Americans. This is a family friendly event. Come for a few hours or throughout the weekend!
Pow-Wows, Gatherings sometimes referred to as Big Times traditionally were set up as seasonal celebrations, harvest gatherings to visit amongst families, to trade and for young folks to meet marriageable partners from other tribal clans. Initially in post-colonial period it was a time to come together to see who had survived the “Indian Campaigns” or in distant past the winters. Currently it is much the same. It is a time to share with all people the beauty and richness of Native American culture!
There are plenty of picnic tables shaded. There will be food and Native American crafts for sale. Please come in a respectful way, no drugs or alcohol permitted at the event. The master of ceremonies will offer explanations of celebration throughout the weekend.
