The Eastern Oregon University Powwow started in 1970 or 1971.

Powwows serve as a gathering for the community, fostering dancing, singing, socializing, and the rejuvenation of old connections while forging new ones. It’s a moment to both preserve existing traditions and establish new ones. The Eastern Oregon University powwow is a festive occasion where gratitude is expressed to friends and family for their support and guidance. Additionally, it’s a platform to acknowledge graduates and alumni. Over time, it has evolved into a tradition of honoring maternal figures, female relatives, veterans, and all those who have contributed to our upbringing.
