Tatankala “Buffalo” Yellowbird of Zintkala Zi PowWow returns to Little Five points with his third annual First Voices Festival PowWow, featuring intertribal celebrations of culture, dance, song, crafts, food, and pageantry. A member of the Lakota Sioux Nation, Buffalo is well respected in Indigenous communities offering expertise, love, and joy on the mic as the master of ceremonies.
At noon both days, the Grand Entry fills the circle with a company of dancers in full regalia taking audiences and participants on a journey of storytelling and cultural sharing through a variety of traditional dances like the Jingle Dress and Fancy dances.
The dancers are surrounded by Indigenous jewelry, arts, and crafts, traditional demonstrations, and food including Fry Bread from our friends at Three Sisters Soulfood! This year, look out for hands-on crafting tents for the young ones.
Entry is FREE, family-friendly, and everyone is welcome!
