Raritan Native American Pow Wow returns after two years

The feathers went into the headdress one at a time and soon T’Karima Ticitl was ready to dance as the second day of the Pow Wow was ready to begin.

Under beautiful blues skies and cool temperatures Sunday afternoon at the Middlesex County fairgrounds in East Brunswick, the Redhawk Native American Arts Council welcomed indigenous people from all over the western hemisphere for the first time in two years. The event had been cancelled the last two years due to the coronavirus pandemic.
