More Blackfeet Dancing...

There were 7 Blackfeet Indian dancers at the Lewis & Clark Festival, each doing their own dance. This is the Grass Dance.

This is the Jingle Dance.

Their costumes were specific to their dance, and each costume was hand-made with thousands of glass beads, mirrors, and feathers. Most took many years to create. I look forward to learning more about the dances seen at Pow-wows across the country.
