The Lawilowan American Indian Festival Inc (LAIF) began in 2007. Additionally, Muddy Run Powwow was established in 2009.

These two Powwows occur in two different locations in south-central Pennsylvania. Firstly, the Laif Lawilowan American Indian Festival is in March at York College of Pennsylvania, Grumbacher Sports and Fitness Center, 899 S Richland Ave, York, PA 17403. In September, the Muddy Run Powwow is at the Steam-O-Rama grounds, 1673 Manor Road, Windsor, PA 17366. We want to introduce and educate the general public about the vast array of Native American Cultures. We have been very fortunate to have built excellent relationships with exceptional drummers/singers, dancers, artisans, flute players, and Masters of Ceremonies from across the United States. We rely on their shared knowledge of our Native American community to promote awareness and education of Native American Culture. We invite everyone to celebrate our living and evolving traditions.

Ultimately, we would like to find a permanent home somewhere in the York County area, where we could have our two Powwows and have a Cultural center to teach. We can only do this with your support and donations. Thank you very much.

Our Mission:

Our Mission is to share, promote, and educate the community about the Native American Culture, traditions, and heritage through drumming, song, dance, storytelling, and flute playing. It is essential to encourage our elders and youth to come together. This combination is how our Powwow culture will live on for future generations.
