People from all around the University of Idaho and Moscow came together to attend the 24th-annual Tutxinmepu Powwow on April 5 with the help of Native American Student Association.
Many students, families and community members took part in this event dressed in their regalia to dance along to the drum groups. The event had an outstanding turnout, setting a record for the biggest powwow held in the ICCU Arena.
In between the events, volunteers served stew and fry bread, which sold out immediately as a result of high community attendance. Crafts and jewelry were also available for purchase from Native American vendors.
“We’d love to see more people next year. It’s going to happen again the first weekend of April next year, and we really appreciate the support we got from the Moscow community this year,” Nathan Tinno, a member of the Native American Student Association, said.
