Hosted by the Office of Indigenous Relations, now integrated with Indigenous Student Services, this one-day non-competitive celebration of Indigenous heritage features vendors, dancers, and singers from the Waterloo region and beyond. Join us as we celebrate Indigenous culture and tradition through song, dance, arts, and cuisine. Gidinawendamin/Ska’nikú•lát Pow Wow is intended to be a safe, welcoming, and vibrant opportunity for Indigenous and non-Indigenous folks from the UWaterloo community and beyond to gather in celebration.

We welcome everyone to join.

We gratefully acknowledge the University of Waterloo Athletics for their vital support in making this celebration possible.
