Join your friends and neighbors for Welcome to Indian Country, a one-of-a-kind performance on the Red Oxx Events Lawn, Billings’ newest outdoor concert venue. 

Using a combination of music and spoken verse, Welcome to Indian Country celebrates Indigenous culture and resilience in modern life while taking time to honor elders and ancestors. It’s at times poignant, sometimes satirical, witty and wise.  

The performance is set against a colorful backdrop of lit teepees in the Apsáalooke (Crow) style, erected exclusively for the performance by the Pretty Shield Foundation.
