2019 Red Clay Pow Wow
Join us for the Annual Red Clay Pow Wow on October 26-27, 2019 at the Red Clay State Historic Park in Cleveland, Tennessee. The Friends of Red Clay and Native American Services of Tennessee, co-hosts of the Red Clay Pow Wow, invite you and your family to spend the weekend with us. See Native American Dancers, visit craft booths and demonstrations (including basketry, bow and arrow crafts, pottery, paintings, and other handmade items being made right before your eyes.), share stories, enjoy the primitive encampments and living history sites and listen to wonderful entertainers.
Red Clay Pow Wow Intertribal Dancing
The Red Clay Pow Wow is a family friendly event, so bring everyone. Seating is limited, so be sure to bring folding chairs or blankets to sit on. First time at the Pow Wow? Listen to the Master of Ceremonies. He will let you know what is going on, and you will learn a lot! If you want to take a picture of a pow wow participant, be sure to ask permission. Take time to visit the traders who surround the dance arena, and don’t forget to try the fry bread!
