UC Berkeley Powwow
The Powwow at UC Berkeley continues the annual tradition of bringing the surrounding Native community to celebrate and honor Native American cultures. This event serves as an opportunity for Native programs on campus, along with various Native tribal populations throughout California to unite and celebrates cultures. Potential Native students will be provided with the opportunity to visit the UC Berkeley campus. We will have resources and information regarding student housing, financial aid, scholarship, and academic support services to students interested in applying to the UC.
Seating will be limited, so please bring chairs and if needed canopies for shade. This is a family-friendly event; no alcohol or drugs allowed.
