Winter Powwow Brings Community Together

Muckleshoot — On Jan 10, our community gathered for the Winter Powwow after the event was postponed earlier in the season due to flooding. Coming together again made the day especially meaningful as dancers, drummers, families, and visitors filled the space from morning to evening.

The Powwow was full of life and movement, with participation from youth through Elders. Songs from the drum carried throughout the circle as dancers shared their gifts and stories through dance. Food and vendors added to the celebration, creating a welcoming space for connection, laughter, and time together.

We thank the Powwow Committee for their hard work and dedication in bringing this gathering to life, and we thank all who participated, danced, sang, volunteered, and joined us in celebration.

We look forward to gathering again and cannot wait to see everyone at the next Powwow.
