Who is the Indian Women’s Pocahontas Club
The Indian Women’s Pocahontas Club comprised of five generations of Cherokee women that evolved out of the female seminaries of higher education. These Cherokee women have kept the importance of education at the forefront, as well as the Cherokee history and culture in the spotlight of the world, as we have been ever evolving through the many adversities of our changing world as we move into the future.

Thank you to the Oklahoma Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts and to the many individuals who support, encourage, and help us achieve our scholarship goals and bring cultural awareness to our community.
