Part of  the Native American Celebration in the Park, founded by Salt Lake City  graphic designer and Navajo Cal Nez and still headed by him, it has  grown into an enormous event: 65,000-85,000 people are expected to  attend this year.<\/p>\n<p>While other activities that day are free, the powwow costs a lot to put  on \u2013 the arena director, master of ceremony and tabulator have to be  paid and prize money distributed \u2013 so there is an admission charge of  $5. Anyone under the age of 6 or over 65 attends at no charge. There are  two Grand Entry ceremonies, at around noon and 5 p.m. Prize money is  given in the drum contest and for males and females in different age  categories in the Fancy, Fancy Shawl, Grass, Jingle and Traditional  dance categories.  Registration begins at 11 a.m. and the powwow goes  until the awards ceremony at 8 p.m.  Nez encourages you to bring your  family and your chairs.<\/p>\n<p>The Main (cultural) Food Court and Arts and Crafts Vending open at 7  a.m. and close at sunset, just before the fireworks display at 10 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>For more information go to <a href=\"http:\/\/nacip.com\" target=\"_new\">nacip.com<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/powwowimage2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12180\" title=\"powwowarena copy\" src=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/powwowimage2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"643\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/powwowimage2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/powwowimage2-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/powwowimage2-388x500.jpg 388w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For more than 15 years, the drums of the Intertribal Powwow have been heard in Liberty Park just as the Days of \u201947 Parade disbanded.
