The 36th annual Gathering of Nations’ powwow began Friday in Albuquerque. It concludes late Saturday after two days of traditional dancing, horse parades and pageant events for the Miss Indian World contest. ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - One of the largest gatherings of indigenous peoples has drawn thousands of dancers, singers and artisans to New Mexico. Mayor Tim Keller says the powwow draws people from more than 700 tribes. They are grouped by their type of dance — with men, women and children competing to win prizes in their categories.
