The NATIVE. MADE. Market - What is it? When is it? Why is it happening?
/
"This event is more than a market. It’s an opportunity for communities to learn about Native culture and history through intimate conversations, instead of through glass in museums and textbooks. Our family believes in building bridges between communities by breaking bread. The NATIVE. MADE. event brings a diverse group of Indigenous peoples and Allies together to share that we are still here, we are active members in our communities, and we are choosing to be part of a new fabric being woven at this time for generations to come." Angelina Hilton, Event Curator, POP ROC Co-founder, Member of Sac and Fox Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska and of Iowa descent.
