Southern Paiute Pow Wow
Las Vegas, Nevada

Pow Wow according to Indian tradition is the time the Native American people’s way of meeting together to join in dancing, singing, visiting and renewing old friendships and making new ones. This is also time to renew thought of the old ways and to preserve a rich heritage.

As various tribes gather together, they would share their songs, often changing these songs so singers from different tribes could learn. Pow Wow singers are very important figures in the Native American culture. The songs sung at Pow Wows are of many varieties from religion to war to social.
