Description

Honor the music, dance, and rich cultural traditions of Native Americans with the Powwows: Celebrating American Culture Forever® stamps.

Four stamps showcase original paintings of Native American dancers by Cochiti Pueblo artist Mateo Romero. The artist took photographs of four different dancers in traditional clothing performing his or her dance against a brightly colored background that highlights the dancer’s shaping and movement. He then painted on top of the photographs with thick, brightly colored brushstrokes to create the abstract expressionistic images gracing the stamps.

The Powwows: Celebrating American Culture stamps are being issued in panes of 20 Forever® stamps. These Forever stamps will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail® one-ounce rate.
