Albuquerque | Pop-Up Powwow

Join us as we share and celebrate the power of communities in performance! We invite you to gather among artists and thinkers from across America’s distinctive cultural landscape as a part of the Live in America Festival.

Pop-Up Powwow amplifies the powwow experience as an Indigenous cultural asset by re-establishing Two-Spirit/Indigi-Queer people to a respected, visible place within the community.

ABOUT Pop-Up Powwow

Intergenerational Two-Spirit/Indigi-Queer artists gather in space, time, and spirit to share and practice both traditional and contemporary expressions of new ritual, healing, and celebration.

Pop-Up Powwow amplifies the powwow experience as an Indigeneous cultural asset by re-establishing Two-Spirit/Indigi-Queer people to a respected, visible place within the community. Within this event, we will explore the relationship and connection between contemporary and traditional artistic expression, as well as the inclusion and involvement of Indigenous youth, elders, and everyone in between.

As friends and relatives celebrate and gather, we invite you to Come To The Circle.
