We dive into the Red Earth Youth Powwow, featuring young Native dancers across categories from Fancy Shawl and Jingle to the crowd-favorite Tiny Tots (with Grand Entry at 12:00 PM!). Plus, get details on the expanded outdoor Native Art Market, featuring authentic beadwork, pottery, jewelry, fashion, and contemporary Indigenous art.

We also map out the perfect "Make a Day of It" downtown itinerary, starting with the Scissortail Farmers Market, hitting the local food trucks, and wrapping up in time for a downtown dinner.
