Cedar & Snow: Indigenous Artisan Showcase

Cedar & Snow: Indigenous Artisan Showcase

Celebrate Indigenous creativity, culture and community at our 2nd Annual Cedar & Snow Indigenous Artisan Showcase!

Join us for a very Indigenous holiday market and cultural gathering to celebrate traditional and contemporary Indigenous arts, crafts and culture. 

Discover beautiful handcrafted treasures made with care, culture and creativity, directly from local Indigenous artists and entrepreneurs. 

By shopping here, you are directly supporting Indigenous makers and small businesses within our community.

This is your one-stop shop for meaningful, one-of-a-kind gifts for everyone on your list.

Come explore Indigenous culture on campus:

• 🛍️ Indigenous Makers Market: Shop for handmade artwork, jewelry, beadwork and more from talented Indigenous artists.
• 🎨 Hands-on workshops: Create your own sweetgrass brush or sage and lavender bundle (while supplies last).
• 💬 Cultural teachings: Learn from a Knowledge Keeper through stories, teachings and conversation.
• 🍲 Rez Café: Come hungry! Enjoy favourites including Indian tacos, scone dogs, wild rice soup, strawberry drink and more.

Celebrate winter, support local artists and learn more about Indigenous cultures and traditions. We look forward to sharing this space of connection and creativity with you.
