Be a part of the 7th annual street art festival dedicated to Indigenous expression, featuring Arrowsoul Art, dancers, textile artists, music, outdoor exhibition at the Branigan Cultural Center, and more. This year’s program honors the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirits (MMIWG2S) as well as Ni Una Más (Not One More) movements. These movements are ignited across borders from Canada to Mexico by art and creation.
