Balboa Park Pow Wow

Saturday, October 2, 2021 at 10 AM
Balboa Park
Free

The San Diego American Indian Health Center (SDAIHC) will host its annual Balboa Park Pow Wow and everyone is welcome to attend this free, family-friendly event!

This event is sponsored by the San Diego American Indian Health Center and will feature native drumming, singing, and dancing from various American Indian/Alaskan Native Tribes, bands, and communities. The Balboa Park Pow Wow is also an opportunity to raise cultural awareness within the greater San Diego population about American Indians/Alaskan Natives and our passion for celebrating and preserving customs and traditions.

Date | Saturday, October 2 and Sunday, October 3 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Location | The corner of Park Blvd. and President's Way

Each day will begin with recognizing and honoring the Kumeyaay people (whose homelands include Balboa Park) with beautiful Bird Songs, followed by Gourd Dancing, Inter-Tribal Dancing, and Honorings.

Vendors will be selling handmade jewelry, pottery, basketry, clothing and a variety of other crafts and goods. Food vendors will offer delectable American Indian dishes such as fry bread and Indian Tacos in addition to other treats.

This year the event will be held in recognition of the late Saginaw Grant for his leadership and many contributions to the American Indian community.
