2011 STEWART FATHER'S DAY POWWOW
JUNE 17TH – 19TH, 2011 Carson City, Nevada
It was another great Father's Day Powwow at Stewart Indian School in Carson City, Nevada!
This annual powwow draws a number of quality American Indian arts and crafts vendors, and is also a time for alumni, former employees and their families and friends to gather at the former campus. Additionally, this fundraising event is part of an effort to establish the Stewart Indian Cultural Center. The event helps preserve the legacy and history of the Stewart Indian School from its inception to closure with displays of memorabilia, arts and crafts and items relative to the history of the school's past.
