19th Annual World Championship Hoop Dance Contest
The Heard Museum. Central Ave. & Encanto Blvd. Phoenix, Arizona

All are welcome! Rain or Shine!

Gates Hours: 9:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Grand Entries: 9:30 a.m. both days.
Competition will end at approximately 5 p.m. on Saturday. The Adult final round will begin at 2 p.m. on Sunday.

Thrill to the excitement as more than 70 dancers from throughout the U.S. and Canada vie for the nation's most prestigious hoop dancing prize. Food, frybread and shopping round out this event.

First-time adult champion Brian Hammill, Ho Chunk, 39, of New River, Arizona is expected to return and defend his title against Charles Denny, Chippewa/Cree/Ute, 19, from Fort Duchesne, Utah, the 2008 champion. Also, look for seasoned competitors and crowd favorites as Derrick Davis, Hopi/Choctaw; Nakotah La Rance, Hopi/Tewa, from Flagstaff, Arizona; Alex Wells, Lil Wat First Nation, of Morley, Alberta; and Lisa Odjig, Odawa/Ojibwe, from Wikemiking, Ontario. The winners will take home their share of more than $30,000 in prize money. (Final competitor list will be available on Saturday, February 13 at the event.) Hoop dance fans from across the U.S., Canada and Europe are already making plans to cheer their favorite dancer on to glory.

Other categories of competition include Tiny Tot (under 5 years), Youth (5 to 12), Teen (13 to 17) and Senior (40 and older).

 Visitors can enjoy dance performances as well as delicious fry bread and other American Indian foods. Held on the museum grounds, admission to the museum is included.

For many years, the intertribal hoop dance has expanded to incorporate new and creative designs and extremely intricate footwork. Each dancer presents a unique variation of the intertribal hoop dance, weaving in aspects of his or her distinct tradition and culture. Individual routines are presented using as few as four to as many as 50 hoops, which are manipulated to create a variety of designs including animals, butterflies and globes. Dancers are judged based on five skills – precision, timing/rhythm, showmanship, creativeness and speed. In recent years, younger competitors are incorporating modern dance steps like hip-hop into their routines. No matter which steps a hoop dancer wields, however, she or he is dancing in the footsteps of Tony Whitecloud, founder of the modern hoop dance.

Admission: Per Day (includes event and museum admission): $10 general admission, $9 seniors (65+), $7 American Indians, $3 for children age 4-12, FREE for children under 4.

Everyone is welcome!

Drums: Four Directions. Head Man: Ed Goodall. MC: Arnold Littlehead.

The Native American Youth and Family Center will hold its first ever Neerchokikoo Powwow, the purpose of this powwow is to celebrate the purchase of the new NAYA Family Center’s building and grounds from Portland Public Schools, once known as the old Whitaker Middle School. The property is historically intertwined with the Native community and was once called Neerchokikoo, a Chinook fishing village site located on the property. NAYA Family Center sees the property as a place that incorporates the history and honors the significance of reclaiming tribal lands.

The site on which NAYA now stands was a thriving village for the Multnomah Chinook people well into the 20th century. It had more than 126 dwellings and a year-round encampment. In June of 2006, NAYA Family Center moved to this site; NAYA staff officially asked the Chinook community for permission to make their new home on Chinook homeland. The process to purchase the property included a major investment from the Northwest Area Foundation to complete renovations and provide for the down payment before the purchase could be final.

Admission Fees: Free!

Drums Along the Hudson
Upper Manhattan's Inwood Hill Park- 218th Street & Indian Road, New York, NY

Times: 11:00 am until 6:00 pm, rain or shine

Everyone Welcome!

Presented by Lotus Music & Dance in collaboration with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation, sponsored in part by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, WABC-TV, Councilman Robert Jackson, and JPMorganChase.

Drums Along the Hudson® features Manhattan's only open air pow wow, which is a celebratory gathering of Native American people. This year the host drum will be Heyna Second sons. We also honor two organizations and/or individuals for their environmental and humanitarian services. During the Pow Wow, our honorees are given a ceremonial blanket and lead the Honor Dance around the Pow Wow Circle. The 2010 honorees are Louis Mofsie, Founder, Thunderbird American Indian Dancers and Grammy nominated Singer / Songwriter, Melky Jean, Founder, Carma Foundation / Haiti. Sandra Bookman, weekend anchor for WABC-TV will host the event.

In September 2002, with a generous grant from the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs, Lotus Music & Dance established Drums Along the Hudson®: A Native American Festival. It began as a traditional Pow Wow to celebrate Native American heritage and culture, and also to commemorate the Lenape people who first inhabited Inwood Hill Park, or Shorakapok ("edge of the water"). This event first took place annually in the spring, thereafter we added something new and different each year to make the event more exciting and enjoyable -- including a Shad tasting, a White Pine tree planting (the Iroquois symbol of peace), international foods, drummers and dancers and a Native American Education Initiative. The event has attracted attendees from 400 in the first year to as many as 10,000.

Our latest addition is an Environmental Tent where attendees can learn more about practical ways to implement "green" living. Participating organizations have included the Audubon Society, Clean Air NY, Lower East Side Ecology Center, Hudsonia, the Council on the Environment of NYC and appearances by Captain Planet.

Drums Along the Hudson has received the support of many goverment officials including Mayor Bloomberg (2009 Proclamation), NYC Councilman Robert Jackson and Congressman John Lewis.

JUNE 3-5, 2010
Sealaska Heritage Institute Celebration, Juneau, Alaska

Sealaska Heritage Institute's biennial Juried Art Show and Competition will debut June 2. Please check back for more information.

Celebration is a biennial festival of Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian tribal members organized every two years by Sealaska Heritage Institute.

Event began in 1982, born of SHI's Board of Trustees' desire to celebrate and showcase Southeast Alaska Native traditions and customs. Since that time, Celebration has become an effective and energetic vehicle for encouraging individuals, families, clans and communities to participate in traditional song and dance, arts and crafts, and the revitalization of Native languages.

It is one of the largest gatherings of Southeast Alaska Native peoples and is the second largest event sponsored by Alaska Natives in the State of Alaska.

Hotels sometimes fill up soon after this date is released, so SHI encourages people to book rooms early.
