Located on western Manitoulin Island, the 15th Annual Jiing-Da-Moog Traditional Pow Wow is taking place in Sheshegwaning on June 20th & 21st.  Grand entries on Saturday at 1:00 pm and 7:00 pm, and on Sunday at 12:00 noon.  Admission is free.  Craft and food vendors on site.  No alcohol or pets allowed.  Take highway 540 past Silver Water and on to the Sheshegwaning First Nation - just follow the signs provided. Rain or shine!

Since the ancient days of Aboriginal tradition, neighboring nations have come together each year to trade, dance and celebrate life in a spectacular kaleidoscope of colourful craftwork, regalia and singing.  The very nature of the gathering of nations welcomes all people.

Local pow wows are scheduled most weekends throughout the months of June to the beginning of September.  Visit
