Welcome to our Franklin Pierce Annual Powwow, where our Native Indigenous Culture Clubs invite you to help us celebrate our rich cultural heritage and promote unity within our community!

Expect to see dancers dressed in beautiful regalia, to hear powerful drums, and to learn about cultures that span this continent we call home. Grand entry will be around 1:00pm and we will honor our graduating seniors at 3:00pm. There will be Native vendors selling art, beads, handmade products, supplies, and more along a variety of Indigenous food from our N.I.C.C. club students for you to enjoy!
