Central Oregon Community College’s annual salmon bake will be held May 17 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Bend campus. Now in its 25th year, the event is put on by the college’s Native American program and the First Nations Student Union Club.
This free event is open to the community, and will include food, music, dancing, a silent auction and more. All donations will go to support the First Nations Student Union scholarship program.
Traditionally baked salmon will be served in the afternoon, provided by Brigham Fishery, a Native-owned business. Frybread and other side dishes will also be served.
Flutist James Edmund Greeley, a Native American Music Award winner, will be one of the artists, and Quartz Creek will provide powwow drumming and dancing.
