This event shines a spotlight on the exceptional talents and contributions of ten Native artisans:

  • Alica Murphy Wildcatt (Eastern Band of Cherokee)
  • Aliyah Myers (Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma)
  • Charles Robinson (Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma)

  • Kirsten Solomon (Mississippi Band of Choctaw)
  • Nancy Pheasant (Eastern Band of Cherokee)
  • Sonya Monk (Mississippi Band of Choctaw)
