Muckleshoot Valentines Winter Powwow

By Shayna Brown

The Muckleshoot community filled the floor with love, laughter, and good medicine on Feb. 7 at this year’s Valentine’s Winter Powwow. From the first drumbeat to the last round dance, the day carried that unmistakable mix of joy, tradition, and unconditional love that makes this gathering so special. One of the highlights of the evening was the Sweetheart Team Dance Special, where couples, besties and anyone in between came to win or came to have fun, and all of them brought big smiles and even bigger moves. The Powwow held at the Muckleshoot Community Center offered a place to celebrate love in all its forms: romantic, platonic, cultural, and community love. It was a beautiful day to dance, honor, and share space. Until next year, may your steps stay light and your heart stay content.
