Hundreds of dancers, singers, families, and visitors gathered at the Muckleshoot Community Center for the annual Winter Powwow – an event that showcased the strength and beauty of many Tribal nations coming together.
The competition brought dancers of all ages, from tiny tots to Elders, each displaying their dancing. The powwow drew participants from across Indian Country, with some traveling long distances to dance, sing, and reconnect with community.
Vendors filled the community center with beadwork, clothing, and traditional foods, offering families a place to shop and visit. The Powwow Committee helped ensure everything ran smoothly, reflecting the Tribe’s long standing commitment to hosting tribes for an inclusive cultural gathering.
The Winter Powwow stood as a powerful reminder of our living culture as an opportunity to honor tradition through song, dance, and community.
The last few Fridays of the season brought Muckleshoot employees out dressed in their best Seahawks gear for a group photo to show that the 12’s spirit runs deep.
The two core components of the 7th annual Salmon Jam tournament are teaching kids the dangers of smoking cigarettes and vaping, and empathy for others.
We love hearing from our community. To help us share stories in a timely and organized way, all content for the Muckleshoot Messenger is due by 5pm on the first Friday of each month.
