Organized by American Indian Science and Engineering Society, Colorado State University’s 40th annual Powwow turned the Lory Student Center Grand Ballroom into a display of ornate attire, pounding drums and singing.

The powwow hosted individuals from a variety of states, such as Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico and Arizona, Saturday, Nov. 2. in the Lory Student Center Grand Ballroom.

AISES President Miya Chavez explained a large draw behind hosting events like the powwow: to emphasize that Indigenous culture is still alive.

“I mean, there are some people out there that think that we're not in existence anymore,” Chavez said. “So I think it's really important to recognize that, hey, this is a group that's here.”
