Annual Powwow at Clark College

On Nov. 1, Clark College welcomes the community to its annual powwow, “Educating for the Seventh Generation.” The free, public celebration of Indigenous cultures will be in the Gaiser Student Center on Clark College’s main campus, 1933 Fort Vancouver Way, Vancouver. Doors open at 5 p.m.; grand entry begins at 6 p.m. Due to limited stage space, drummers will participate by invitation only. All dancers are welcome. Since 2009, Clark College has celebrated Indigenous cultures during the first weekend of November in honor of Native American Heritage Month with a powwow that includes music, dance, food, vendors, honoring veterans and announcing the Dreamcatcher Scholarship. “Educating for the Seventh Generation” references our responsibility to teach the future generations to maintain resources, traditions and customs. Driving directions and parking maps are available at www.clark.edu/maps. Donations accepted for the event through Clark College Foundation at give.clarkcollegefoundation.org. Learn more at clark.edu/campus-life/arts-events/powwow/.
