The Grand Mid-Summer Pow-Wow is New York City's oldest and largest Native American celebration. This year's event was held over three consecutive days. During the three days, there were dance contests, unique performances, and traditional arts and crafts exhibition.
The Grand Mid-Summer Pow-Wow was a great opportunity for CCIP exchange visitors who are from the Asia-Pacific region to experience Native American culture. CCIP students engaged in the festival, with feelings of celebration.
The interns were enthusiastic about their experience at the Pow-Wow because they were exposed to many unique customs that they had not previously been acquainted with.
"I didn't know much about the history of the Native Americans," said one student, "so coming to the Pow-Wow was very eye-opening. I learned so much."
Another student added, "All the dancing and the shows were amazing to see. Doing stuff like this is really what makes CCIP so unique."
