Join us for an evening of song, dance, and community connection!Oklahoma Round Dance is a powerful exercise of intertribal cultural expression of song and dance. For many singers and dancers, the round dance is a warm and safe intergenerational and traditional ceremony designed to provide the opportunity for creating and sustaining spiritual connections to older and newly composed round dance songs of the Southern Plains.
Round dance songs revive old memories and promises that Indigenous people in Oklahoma have to an intertribal gathering. Part of belonging to a local community is participating in community rituals and events, because round dances are traditionally viewed as exercising sovereignty in public spaces throughout Oklahoma.
All princesses and royalty are warmly invited to attend. Please bring your own chairs and come ready to dance, visit, and be in community.
