"New York City's oldest and largest Pow Wow, the annual Thunderbird American Indian Mid-Summer Pow Wow is three days of inter-ribal American Indian dance competitions in the spectacular apple orchard on the 315-year old farm."
More than 40 Indian Nations are represented at the event, along with a selection of American Indian art, crafts, jewelry and food.

The event begins on July 27th and goes until July 29th.

I seriously want to go to this event. This seems like it would be the most amazing expression of Native culture, art, and food. I have always wanted to go to a Pow Wow and this appears to be the most amazing one that has ever come together. I want to experience the way the culture is practice. To see all of the Native people come together and celebrate their beliefs and customs. I don't see a better way to learn about something that I am so passionate about!
