TMU Pow Wow

On October 17, 1998 Toronto Metropolitan University became the first Toronto university to host a Traditional Pow Wow.

Twenty years later in 2018 the Pow Wow relaunched to honour TMU's Indigenous past while looking towards our collective future.

The 2026 TMU Pwaaganigaawin (pow wow) team is excited to announce that the community feast will be catered by Chef Tawnya Brant. 👩🏽‍🍳🥙🥗

Chef Tawnya Brant is a Mohawk Nation, Turtle Clan citizen of the Six Nations of the Grand River Territory and the chef-owner of Yawékon Foods, an Indigenous catering and educational company rooted in Haudenosaunee traditional and contemporary foodways. She is the host of APTN’s One Dish One Spoon, with season two airing in May 2026, and a Top Chef Canada Season 10 finalist.

With over 30 years in the restaurant industry, Chef Tawnya has been featured on CTV’s The Good Stuff with Mary Berg, The Social, Milk Masters 2024, and APTN In Focus, and on the covers of Food & Drink Canada and Menu Magazine. Through her work, she continues to share Indigenous food knowledge across North America while honoring Haudenosaunee culinary and agricultural traditions.
