Virtual Buffalo Dance Performance by the Sky City Buffalo Ram Dancers (Acoma Pueblo) and 2022 Pueblo Leadership Listing
As we open a new year, the Pueblos recognize the celebration of the Three Kings along with the installation of newly elected officials. This is a celebration held on many Pueblos in recognition of the gifts given to baby Jesus in Bethlehem. In the Pueblos, we take this time to show gratitude for the gifts from our creator, especially that of our sovereignty. The New Year brings in newly elected officials on many of the Pueblos. We celebrate our rights to existence and pray for blessings to be upon our people—especially our new leadership.
Please enjoy this video of the Buffalo Dance Performance by the Sky City Buffalo Ram Dancers and see the new leadership listing below the video.
