The beating of drums will carry across Fayetteville on Sept. 6 as the Running Water Powwow welcomes the public for a full day of Native song, dance, and cultural celebration.
The annual event, held at 200 Indian Drive, blends tradition with contemporary expression. Organizers say it offers a chance to celebrate Indigenous heritage while inviting the community to learn about the values of a tradition that carries honor, respect and generosity.
“Powwows bring people together across generations,” “It’s a time to celebrate who we are and to invite others to share in that spirit,” said master of ceremonies JD Moore.
Gates will open at 8 a.m., with dancing beginning at noon. Admission is $10 per person, with free parking available. The powwow is open to the public, and attendees are encouraged to partake in food, arts, crafts and demonstrations throughout the day…
