Beyond land acknowledgments supporting Indigenous businesses and artists is a perfect way to be an active ally in empowering communities. You're in luck that the Pacific Northwest boasts some of the most prolific Indigenous artists who bring their rich heritage to both traditional and contemporary art. Tribal community art markets and Holiday craft bazaars are a perfect way to learn more about the artists of the region while often seeing some artists creating their art on site.
Come through and feast your eyes on gloriously bold art that's rich in color and design from across our beloved tribal communities. You'll find sculpture, painting, weaving, carving, and beadwork often involving techniques passed down through many generations and others who are genius in adapting new materials into the Indigenous art panoply and multi-verse! Trust - you will be deeply impressed!
