Please describe what you intend to sell. Note: all products must be hand made with most materials sourced on Turtle Island (whenever possible). No sacred or ceremonial items (examples: masks, staffs, eagle feathers etc.), please. We strive to protect and keep sacred Indigenous spiritualities (contact us with questions).

Someone must be working your booth at all times during the conference. SET UP / TEAR DOWN -See details above for set up and tear down times. There are no early tear downs - all vendors stay set up until 5pm Sunday. Tear down is after 5pm.
It is required that products and materials be sourced on Turtle Island (North America) with the exception of beads/needles/threads, etc. This is to avoid the sales of mass produced items as we always look to ensuring the preservation and spiritual context and histories surrounding Indigenous art forms. Are all of your materials hand made and sourced on Turtle Island? *All product must be hand made by you. If selling t-shirts, the design must be drawn by you. We will not allow any outsourced products. If you have questions about what you may sell at this event, please email contact@indigenousartscollective.org
