New England's premier global Indigenous arts festival is now happening virtually!
For 46 years, Cultural Survival Bazaars have hosted Indigenous artists from across the world. Cultural Survival Bazaars are a series of cultural festivals that provide Indigenous artists, cooperatives, and their representatives from around the world the chance to sell their work directly to the U.S. public.
You are invited to join us on Saturday, July 25, 2020 at 12 pm for our first Virtual Bazaar!
This Summer, we welcome vendors representing over 1551 artists from over 21 cultures. Their work will span various styles and forms, including handwoven textiles, natural fiber bags, kitchenware, jewelry, paintings, scarves, clothing, woodwork, and more! Check out some of our featured artists:

Elizabeth James Perry
Using natural materials, Native artist Elizabeth James Perry ([link removed]) of the Aquinnah Wampanoag practices the art of making wampum jewelry, a traditional craft passed down through generations. Her deep respect for traditional wampum-making are evidenced in these meticulously crafted and freshly-inspired designs.

Bernard Domingo
What began as a youthful interest in making toys, for Zimbabwean wire artist Bernard Domingo ([link removed]) (Shona), has grown into a fruitful business and love of art, changing his life in ways he never anticipated.

Tinamit Textiles
Tinamit Textiles ([link removed]) is a small business based in Cambridge, MA and in several communities around Lake Attitlan, Guatemala. Local Maya tailors repurpose fabric into various items of clothing including tunics, shirts, blouses, and jackets. Proceeds help support a children's educational project located on the shores of Lake Attitlan.
