At the Bruns Amphitheater at CalShakes on Saturday
Sewam American Indian Dance shares the art, culture, and beauty of American Indian people through performance and education presentations, enriching participants’ understanding of American Indian cultural traditions and celebrating the diversity of our varied communities.

This piece shares cultural histories, dances, and songs that are appropriate to share in spaces such as powwow and other community gatherings. In this specialized program, audiences experience rich oral narratives, come to understand the meanings of dances, cultural history, lifestyle, and arts, and participate in building awareness and connections across diverse communities.

It is important for audiences to know that this program and sharing is not intended to speak for all Native American/American Indian peoples and cultures. Sewam American Indian Dance shares in good protocol, with the intention of creating a first step in building awareness and connections to the rich, beautiful, and diverse lifeways of Indigenous peoples around the world. Sewam Dance is dedicated to sharing the highest quality meaningful, and culturally rich American Indian presentations to audiences everywhere.
