    I’m from the Pueblo of Santa Ana, located 25 miles north from Albuquerque. Our annual feast day is July 26 of every year, I welcome you to come and see the beautiful dances as well as eat some authentic traditional food.

      Wow! I have always wanted to come to the annual feast. Maybe this year.

      Sierra Johnson You are more than welcome to come! We have a second village, about 10 miles west from Bernalillo. That’s where the dances take place. You are more then welcome to come the day before, July 25 for St. James Day. We throw from the houses and feed. Then of course our annual feast day the next day.

    White Originally from Kentucky currently in Phoenix. I often travel through the Navajo reservation. Going to Southern Utah, and visiting Navajo monuments. Often I feel more comfortable on the Navajo Nation then I do on off it. I've been impressed by the young Navajo! Always very friendly bright and smart! I have actually adopted a native Elder she lives in pinion. I have a question about photography. What is the etiquette for a white person taking photos at the pow wow?

      @SierraJohnson  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi William, most Pow Wows in this area are competitive or some sort of event so nothing really ceremonial goes on. I'm sure if they don't want you to take photos they will say. Navajos don't really participate in Pow Wows so I don't know that much about it. If you go up north I'm sure it will be different, as the Natives up north use it for ceremonial reasons.

    Anishinabeg (Ojibwe), Northern and Central Wisconsin, now residing in Alaska. Ohwa! (Thumb’s up)
    Gathering of First Nations - 1st time for me too! Let’s go! Thanks for the journey. Great work!
    Siri - Love your jacket; it’s definitely your color too.
    First time seeing Griz, we’ll have to look him up and check him out as well. Nice vocals and great message at the end.
    Do you know where the dancers were from with the long feathers? One of the countries in South America?
    I saw the Grand Entry a few days ago, amazing! Love all of beautiful regalia. Was able to watch parts of the Miss. World? Seventeen final contestants and all were tough competition. Loved Miss. Congeniality and the final winner from the Seminole Tribe. All of the Ladies represented well. The videos are on You Tube.
    Thank you for sharing your journey and allowing us to join.
    Stay smiling and be well,
    Ma’iingankwe

      Thank you so much for watching from Alaska, I always wanted to go there. Someday. :) I believe those dancers with the long feathers are Aztec Fire Dancers from Mexico, they are called In Tlanextli Tlacopan.

      Sierra Johnson,
      Oh my gosh, you’re right, they are from Mexico, I can’t believe I’d forgotten that. Thanks for calming my my mind, it was driving me nuts for a few minutes.
      Always welcome to our beautiful and majestic state of Alaska. If you do visit, make sure it is for a lot longer than two weeks. It is never enough time and there is just so much to see and do.
      Our tourists are slowly starting to come in. They will be hitting pretty hard by the end of May till at least August. Hopefully, they and us will have a nice, hot summer. Yes, it gets hot here, at least for us. We’ve hit a 100F and a few years ago it was 90F for more than a week in the Interior of our state.
      Bring lots of layers cause one day it will be cold and the next, bright sunshine and a lot warmer weather.
      We look forward to having you one day.
      Be well and stay smiling,
      Miigwetch (thank you),
      Ma’iingankwe

      Awesome! Thank s for the information. When I do get the chance to go, I would like to stay with a Native family. That has always been a dream of mine. :)

      Sierra Johnson,
      There are many Athabaskan and Eskimo families in their own villages and larger towns. We even have our annual Pow-Wow in the Interior every summer.
      Take a look at their annual Olympics, It’s called The World Eskimo Olympics. They have some really unique competitions that take a great deal of skill and balance. It was always held in Fairbanks, but there was talk of taking it to Anchorage. I’m not sure if it’s true or not. It’s been in Fairbanks forever, so I don’t know why they’d change it.
      I’d sponsor you, but I’m only one, and my family is back in Wisconsin. I’d think you’d much prefer People who have been here for centuries and know more of their culture in this beautiful land. I’m pretty sure that is what you’re looking for.
      Who knows, if you ever get up to the Interior and I’m still here, we can hook up, and I can help with Anishinabeg. 😊
      Stay smiling,
      Ma’iingankwe
