Hundreds of Native American dancers, drummers, and artists will converge in Austin Nov. 4 for the 26th annual Austin Powwow. Last year it relocated to the Austin Expo Center to welcome 30,000 attendees, one of the largest single-day powwows in the country. The intertribal event brings together approximately 80 tribes—from Texas of course, but also South Carolina, Oklahoma, Standing Rock, Canada, and Central America—to celebrate their different tribal heritages and histories.
