Third United Lenape / Lunáapeew Nations Pow Wow

Join Prospect Park Alliance, Éenda-Lunaapeewáhkiing Collective and American Indian Community House for the Third United Lenape / Lunaapeew Nations Pow Wow at the LeFrak Center at Lakeside in Prospect Park. This free, two-day public event welcomes the original Indigenous Lenape peoples who were forced to relocate across the continent back to their ancestral homelands to unite together again to share their cultures with Brooklynites today. Pow Wows are gatherings where Lenape/Lunáapeew and neighboring Indigenous nations socialize and celebrate life. Prospect Park hosted formal Pow Wows from 1916 to 1972. Reviving this tradition in Prospect Park provides the Lenape/Lunáapeew an opportunity to celebrate their culture in their homelands and offers Brooklynites of all backgrounds the chance to enjoy the drumming, dancing, singing, art, crafts and foods of the original stewards of this land.
