About this event

Founded in 1979, the Allegany River Indian Dancers have become one of the best-known Native dance groups in the United States and Canada today. The group has traveled throughout North America, sharing traditional Iroquois social dances. The group is also well known for its repertoire of Intertribal "Pow wow" style dances. Their performances often feature Bill Crouse's hoop dance. This style of dance involves 30 hoops used to make various formations or designs representing things from nature. Through group performances (which often include audience participation) and lecture presentations, this group has taught large audiences about Seneca history and culture and is included in Museum admission.
