Join the Minot State Native American Cultural Center and Native American Cultural Awareness club in welcoming back the 31st annual Spring Honor Dance and Powwow Celebration in the Minot State University Dome, North Dakota. Friday, April 30 and Saturday, May 1.
The MSU Dome will look a little different during this year’s celebration. Last fall, the University displayed flags of the Mandan, Hidatsa, & Arikara Nation, the Spirit Lake Nation, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians, and the Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate Nation to acknowledge their cultures and their presence on campus. The event will also implement standard guidelines for COVID-19, including doubled seating to allow for physical distancing, mask requirements for audience members and performers, and concessions to go.
The standard dancing and drumming of the powwow will happen in full swing. While registration for these events does not start until 3 p.m. on Friday, April 30, Mennem anticipates well-known groups participating since this year’s event will not conflict with one of the largest powwows in the country, the Gathering of Nations.
The event is free and open to the public, but bring your wallet to support vendors from all over the country selling authentic Native American clothing and crafts.
