Journey Home Inter-tribal Powwows 1999-2006
 
 
Powwows have been traditional, inter-tribal celebrations with emphasis on the sharing of cultures and the opportunity to gather on ancestral grounds. Dancers were in traditional apparel and full regalia throughout the weekends, and vendors shared beautiful crafts and authentic native foods.
