There may be others that I am not aware of but that is a pretty good run down of the activities in the various Pueblos in New Mexico. Zuni has Shalako Dances but I am unaware of the date.

Remember some common courtesy things when in any Pueblo. Don’t take pictures, don’t drink and don’t bring alcohol or drugs with you. If invited to eat at someone’s house be polite, eat and get up from the table so others can eat. Don’t offer to pay for the meal. Don’t bother any of the possessions in the house. Thank you always works. Dress warmly as it can be quite cold. Here is a better list of do’s and dont’s.

Have fun!
