The eleventh annual Welcome Powwow

The eleventh annual Welcome Powwow at Nipissing University and Canadore College will be held on Friday, September 16, at 11 a.m. beside the Education Centre Pond.

Everyone is welcome to attend the powwow, as it is an opportunity to celebrate and share Aboriginal culture while honouring the diversity of students at Nipissing and Canadore.

There are more than 650 First Nation, Inuit and Métis students enrolled in programs at Nipissing and Canadore. Many travel long distances to attend school in North Bay, from as far west as Alberta to James Bay and northern Québec.

The powwow is hosted by Nipissing University’s Office of Aboriginal Initiatives and Canadore College’s First Peoples’ Centre.  

Please Note: pictures and filming are not permitted during the Grand Entry and Flag Song. 

Everyone is welcome and admission is free.
