Northwest College

The Native Ways student club at Northwest College will be hosting its annual Buffalo Feast on Thursday, November 17 at 6 p.m. in the Yellowstone Building Conference Center. The feast includes smoked bison brisket, roasted red potatoes, seasonal roasted vegetables, roasted beet salad with goat cheese mousse, Three Sisters soup, bannock bread and berry soup.

This year’s performer is Christian Wallowing Bull, an Indigenous singer-songwriter from Wind River reservation. As a member of the Northern Arapaho Tribe, he uses his heart as a storyteller to “represent his own indigenous roots and to bridge perspective and healing to the lives of those indigenous as well as non-indigenous.” He is the 2021 winner of the Wyoming Singer-Songwriter’s competition in Ten Sleep.

Tickets are $25 for the general public, and $10 for NWC students and kids under 12. Those who wish to attend the event are encouraged to reserve tickets no later than November 11. For reservations and more information, contact Amy McKinney, Associate Professor of History at Northwest College, at amy.mckinney@nwc.edu or 307-754-6008.

Tickets may be purchased at nwcollegefoundation.org/buffalo-feast and the Native Ways Club is pleased to announce that a portion of this year's event proceeds will be allocated to the Native Ways Scholarship Fund.
