The Denver March Powwow took place March 15-17 at the Denver Coliseum. The annual event, which originally started as a way to connect urban Native youth to their heritage, showcased traditional dancing and drumming as well as traditional Native American food, arts and crafts, along with other activities.
The Powwow includes women’s jingle, fancy shawl and buckskin dances and the men’s grass, fancy, traditional, straight and chicken dances. The Native American dance groups, representing nearly 100 different tribes from U.S. and Canada, converged for dancing and music as a kickoff for the summer’s powwow season.
