Otsenhákta Student Centre Pow Wow
A Pow Wow is a day of celebrating, dancing, feasting and singing, open to all.
Pow Wows at Concordia
The Otsenhákta Student Centre (OSC) has been proud to host Pow Wows at the Loyola Campus, honouring past, present and future First Nations, Inuit and Métis students at Concordia. The inaugural Concordia Pow Wow was held in 2022 to mark the 30th anniversary of the OSC. These gatherings have brought together students, faculty, staff and members of the wider community.
The Pow Wow has been put on pause for the 2025-26 academic year. We remain inspired by the past celebrations and the connections they fostered!
The Pow Wow trail
From May to September, Indigenous nations across Quebec host Pow Wows, bringing communities together and welcoming visitors.
Pow Wows celebrate the richness and diversity of Indigenous cultures, serving as a bridge between different nations and between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. Attending a Pow Wow is a special opportunity to celebrate together, build relationships and learn more about different Indigenous traditions and cultures.
