Community Partnership
Sponsorship strengthens AFC’s cultural events, year-round programming goals, and long-term work to establish a permanent Native Community Center in Greater Lansing.
Why AFC Exists
Greater Lansing has been without a permanent Native cultural center for more than two decades. AFC exists to rebuild that community connection.
The powwow’s growth from approximately 1,500 first-year attendees to approximately 2,500 in 2025, with 5,000–7,000 projected for 2026, shows the need for more than a once-a-year gathering.
Year-round programming matters because language, youth development, elder engagement, education, cultural learning, community meals, and support services require a reliable home.
