Join us for a powerful, vibrant day celebrating Indigenous artists, makers, and community leaders at the 2025 Indigenous Art & Makers Market — part of Western Montana Fair Week.
This free, public event will showcase a wide range of handmade art, beadwork, prints, clothing, jewelry, and more. Come connect directly with Indigenous creators and support their work.
The market is part of a broader week of MMIR (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives) awareness, and features:
An interactive community art project led by Dre Castillo
A sacred Red Tipi installation by Way of the Sacred Mountain
Info and resources from JRPC and Indigen-Unity
Cultural presence, storytelling, and community-building
We are currently accepting vendor applications for Indigenous artists interested in participating. We are also looking for volunteers to help make this event a success. Visit our Linktree to find sign-up links and more information: linktr.ee/jeannetterankinpeacecentermt.
This event is organized by Indigen-Unity, a program of the Jeannette Rankin Peace Center, in collaboration with the Western Montana Fair.
Come learn, connect, celebrate, and stand in solidarity through art and community.
