About the Waaswaaganing Indian Bowl

A group of Tribal Leaders and business men formed the Indian Bowl Association which was incorporated by the state of Wisconsin on July17, 1950. As a result the Indian Bowl has been a centerpiece of cultural sharing and education for Lac du Flambeau and surrounding Northwoods communities since 1951.

Maintaining the Historic Pow Wow Grounds

The Waaswaaganing Indian Bowl is a vital part of the practice and preservation of the traditions and culture of the Lac du Flambeau Tribe. The Waaswaaganing Indian Bowl Living Arts & Culture Center is a venue for traditional dance, pow wows and drum-group singing. The Indian Bowl gives children, local families and tourists from all over the world the opportunity to learn about Native American culture and traditions. The Waaswaaganing Indian Bowl Living Arts & Culture continues to be the premier cultural tourism attraction of the Northwoods.
