Homelands PowWow – Tending the Fire Join us for the Second Homelands PowWow – Tending the Fire, a welcoming, family‑friendly celebration of Dancing, Drumming, Music, Arts, Crafts, Food, and Native Vendors.
This is a fundraising PowWow dedicated to reconnecting the Stockbridge‑Munsee Mohican people with their ancestral homelands in the Berkshire region of Western New England. Funds raised support travel and lodging for Tribal members journeying from their Reservation in Wisconsin. Rooted in tradition, community, and cultural resilience, the Homelands PowWow ensures that the bond between the Mohican people and their homelands remains strong for generations to come.
All are welcome—come join us!
