INDIGENOUS WAYS FESTIVAL 2024

Thank you to our 2024 sponsors and partners!

IndigenousWays is in their third year of producing the IndigenousWays Festival, a seasonal monthly series that celebrates Native American, Indigenous (BIPOC), LGBTQAI2S+, Deaf and Hard of Hearing, and all others. Our mission offers Native and Indigenous artists of all walks a platform to share their talents with all generations to reinforce our sacred connections to our ancestors and their cultures.

Your sponsorship is an investment to sustain the authentic traditional and contemporary mixes people of Santa Fe so we may learn from one another. Our audiences, members, vendors, volunteers and the wider community of Santa Fe and the surrounding areas thank you for generous support.

Friends, we know you’ve come to expect legendary Indigenous performers from us -everything from rock and roll superstars to US Poet Laureates. This summer will be no different. Here’s a clue of what we have in store: Pura Fé, renowned, singer-songwriter, musician, artist and reviver of Canoe song/dance and woman's drum. You’ve seen Wade Fernandez perform with the Indigo Girls, and you’ll also see him at our festival.  We’ve got comedian Mimi Gonzalez, Puerto Rican singer/composer Lourdes Perez, and (drumroll) Navajo sibling singing duo Sihasin is back for the second time!
