This year marks the 31st Annual Spring Celebration for the First Nations University of Canada, which features the very popular 2009 First Nations University of Canada Powwow. More than 700 dancers will compete for over $56,000 in cash prizes.
This celebration of spring announces new life and gives thanks for sharing in the rebirth of the land. Since it first began in 1978, the powwow has been held every year to celebrate cultural diversity, to unify families and communities, and to demonstrate First Nations traditions through a wide variety of song and dance styles.
