SUPPORT INDIGENOUS MAKERS!
Below are a few of Manitoba's amazing Indigenous bead artists. Many of these artists have work for sale through their websites and Instagram accounts! If you know of an amazing artist not mentioned here, contact me!
And I'd like to also give a HUGE "shout out" to a talented Cree artist from Whapmagoostui First Nation, Nalakwsis! Their illustration, photoraphy and bead-work is incredible.
