Celebrating Heritage: The Colorful Meeting of Nations Powwow.

A big event is happening in New Mexico. It is called the Gathering of Nations. Many Native American people are there. They will dance, sing, and show their art.

The Gathering of Nations is a very big powwow. People come from all over to join. They wear bright clothes and dance to drums.

Powwows started a long time ago. They helped people stay together when times were hard. The word 'powwow' used to mean 'medicine man'.

Today, some powwows are like shows with prizes. People can see Native American culture. But it's important to remember the old ways, too.

One artist made powwow stamps for the mail. He wanted to show the beauty and power of the dances. He used bright colors to make the stamps feel alive.
