SUMMARY:UCSC Powwow 2026
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, the AIRC hosts an annual event called Indigefest during the spring quarter. The annual event celebrates the culture\, songs\, dances\, and arts of Indigenous people in a “pan-tribal” atmosphere of fellowship\, trust\, respect\, and empowerment. This event also celebrates the life of Sophia Garcia Robles\, a Native woman who served UCSC for 27 years in the Financial Aid office. She was actively involved with American Indian communities\, and for this the powwow wishes to demonstrate the community’s deepest appreciation for her support. This year\, the AIRC will reach a larger audience in the greater Santa Cruz and Monterey communities by hosting a pow wow at the Kaiser Permanente Arena in downtown Santa Cruz. Vendors from throughout the State of California will be present with cultural items for sale\, dancers will contest dance for prize money\, and the recipients of the E. A\, Forssgren Scholarship will be recognized for their achievement. The UCSC Pow Wow 2026 will be a unique opportunity for UCSC students and affiliates to engage directly with and celebrate Native American cultures. \nThe event will be open to the public\, supporting the AIRC’s mission of serving as a vital link between UCSC students/staff/faculty/affiliates and the local American Indian community. This project will generate positive visibility for the University as it demonstrates a commitment to the values of the institution – for example\, those outlined in Principles of Community.\nThis project will directly serve the Native American/First Nations/indigenous communities within the city of Santa Cruz and throughout the greater Monterey Bay Area. Specifically\, it will serve Native students\, yet it is inclusive of all identities as pow wows are considered gatherings where individuals of many different backgrounds are welcome. \nDate: 2026-05-17\nLocation: 104 Front St\, Santa Cruz CA\, 95060 (Kaiser Permanente Arena)\nCost: Free\nImage: UCSC-Powwow.png \nEvent Contact Information:\nTelephone:\nWebsite: https://events.ucsc.edu/event/ucsc-powwow-sophia-robles-garcia-memorial-powwow-2026/\nEmail: ariotutar@ucsc.edu

SUMMARY:Kewet: Malki Museum Memorial Weekend
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Annual Fiesta includes honoring Native American veterans\, arts and crafts\, fry bread\, bird songs\, and dances. The Malki Museum sponsors three main events each year which are designed to be traditional and educational.\nFiesta or Kéwet \nMemorial Weekend\, Sunday\, May 24\, 2026\nMalki’s annual Fiesta is a time of gathering together to share culture and traditions. It is also the major fundraising event for the Museum. Each year hundreds of both natives and non-natives come to participate in this unique event which has been an annual celebration since 1966\, when the Kewét (the Cahuilla word for fiesta) tradition was revived after 20 years. \nThe first Fiesta drew a crowd of about 5\,000 people\, with about one-third comprised of natives from all over California. Many local natives have attended since they were children and have grown up watching first-hand as their culture comes alive in the center stage with dancing\, drums\, bird singing\, native arts and crafts\, and the smell of fresh cooked Indian Fry Bread. At the first Fiesta there was a large amount of pit-roasted barbequed beef\, served with other traditional foods such as corn\, beans\, and homemade tortillas\, and these foods are still served every year. \nThe Indian dancers and singers represent several tribes from southern California\, and many of the vendors in the Ramada booths are Native Americans from all over the Southwestern States. The Ramada booths were constructed by volunteers especially for this annual event\, and were made from alder forks\, willow\, arrow weed\, and palm fronds which were hauled out of the local desert canyons. \nThe Fiesta is held each year on the Sunday of Memorial weekend in May. Any vendors interested in displaying their art or merchandise should contact the museum.

SUMMARY:2026 Journey of a Water Protector Gathering
DESCRIPTION:All are invited to attend the 2026 Journey of a Water Protector gathering. This will be the fifth year of the hosts organizing this event. The hosts continue to remember the late Norm Harry\, a father\, husband\, and ancestor whose life commitment was the protection of teepu (Earth Mother)\, pa’a (water)\, pakwe (fish)\, and e numudooe (our relatives and communities).\n \nThis environmental campout is set for two days with two travel days. This includes camp set up\, training\, teach-ins\, film screenings and honoring sacred waters. These are the days we bring people together from Black\, Indigenous\, People of Color\, 2SLGBTQ and Non-Native communities. This is the time we develop inspiration and guidance from the late Norm Harry (Numu) Pyramid Lake Paiute/Walker River Paiute who developed passionate ties to water and land. He passed in August of 2020. As Norm continues on with his spiritual journey\, Autumn and Beverly continue to honor the traditions of family who believe that traditional knowledge is the foundation of healing with prayer\, song and dance. We should understand the issues of intergenerational trauma and learn the ways Indigenous People can heal. \nThis year’s sessions include: a visit to the Anaconda mine\, organizing against data centers\, traditional food preparation\, screenprinting\, art builds\, and spending time hiking\, birding\, and swimming in Kooyooe Pa’a. \nThis event is open to everyone and is committed to creating an inclusive space for Indigenous\, Black\, Brown\, and LGBTQ2S+ Relatives. This will be an outdoor gathering at home on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Reservation. \nThe cost to attend is $150. Attendance is free for all Indigenous relatives (must be registered) **This is an alcohol and drug-free event. \nPlease register at the link in bio by May 30th. Pesa mu!
