Creative Economy Summit

Conversations and connections for Indigenous creativity to thrive.

Creating a sustainable lifestyle through creativity is tough, but not impossible. We’re bringing together the best and brightest individuals and organizations who support them to connect with one another on creating a vibrant and abundant life as artists. Being an artist requires hard work and grit, and is not unlike entrepreneurship. This day-long summit will provide tools and resources for people looking to expand their skillsets to creating an abundant lifestyle through creativity and the arts.

Join us the day before the Native fashion event of the year to dive deep into Issues facing Native creatives and find tactical solutions to support a vibrant life as an artist and maker.

Summit topics will include:

  • Business & Financial Growth

  • Marketing & Branding

  • Legal & Ethical Considerations

  • Copyright & Intellectual Property Rights

  • Navigating Cultural Appropriation

  • Networking & Growth
