Get matched →Cherokee Art Market is a juried annual event exclusively for Indigenous artists. All artists must apply and be juried in annually, except Cherokee National Treasures who are exempt from the jury process.
You must be Indigenous with proof of enrollment in a federally recognized tribe, membership of an Alaskan Native Corporation, or recognition as Indigenous Peoples under Canadian law. A CDIB card alone is not acceptable.
Every listing links to the organizer's official page. Always confirm deadlines, fees, and entry rules there before you apply.
Work created within the past two years is strongly encouraged. The work submitted for jury review must reflect the style, medium, and quality of work you intend to present at Cherokee Art Market. Jurors evaluate submissions with the expectation that your booth will align with the images provided. Share the highest quality images available. Once accepted, booths are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis following registration and payment.
