Native Owned: An Evening with Indigenous Enterprise
Indulge yourself for an evening with Indigenous Enterprise as they take us on a journey through dance, story, discussion and music. These high energy performers blend traditional customs and culture in an unforgettable celebration of Native American and Canadian pow wow.
The beat of the drum continues in the 21st century with Indigenous Enterprise. This Native American and Canadian collective first stunned crowds at Dance Rites 2018 with their explosively jubilant dance and colourful regalia honouring the legacy of traditional elders. Now, they return to Sydney Opera House this December to welcome you to a celebration of pow wow, dance, music, culture and knowledge sharing in the Utzon Room.
