At Warren Field, on the corner of Gilman Drive and Voigt Drive on the UCSD campus.

The powwow is a Native American gathering focused on dance, song and family celebration. It celebrates the connections to tradition and spirituality, to the Earth and to one another in a social, personal and spiritual meeting.

Powwows began mainly as religious ceremonies to gain wisdom from and give thanks to the Creator. Though many of today's powwows have evolved into social and contest-oriented dances; religious and ceremonial dances are still performed. Though the dance styles and content have changed, the meaning and importance of the dance has not. No other event captures the Native American spirit like the powwow.
