Thunderbird American Indian Dancers 36th Annual Dance Concert And Pow-wow January 28, 2011

Thunderbird American Indian Dancers will hold their 36th annual Dance Concert and Pow Wow at Theater for the New City.  
There will be dances, stories and traditional music from the Iroquois and Native Peoples of the Northwest Coast, the Southwest, the Plains, and the Arctic regions. Between 25 and 30 dancers will assemble for the event.
A Pow-Wow is more than just a spectator event: it is a joyous reunion for native peoples nationwide and an opportunity for the non-Indian community to voyage into the philosophy and beauty of Native culture. Traditionally a gathering and sharing of events, Pow-Wows have come to include spectacular dance competitions, exhibitions, and enjoyment of traditional foods.
All appearances by Thunderbird American Indian Dancers benefit college funds for needy Native American students. Theater for the New City has presented the company's Pow-Wows annually as a two-week event since 1976, donating the box office to these funds.
