Upcoming International Powwow in Red Deer is all about giving
The third annual Powwow Times International Powwow is expected to be better than ever this year, and it all goes down Oct. 13-15 at the Centrium in Red Deer.
Friday is a youth day, which school classes attending, though the public is welcome. There will be a trades fair for students to peruse, and then a grand entry is scheduled for 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, grand entries will begin at 1 p.m.
Patrick Mitsuing of Powwow Times says as always, the powwow, which draws thousands of people each year, is about showcasing Indigenous culture and the highest level, including through song and dance; and it’s also about showcasing Red Deer as a city.
The talent on display will be world class, he says, and everyone from any walk of life is encouraged to come out.
