We’re excited to welcome you to the 2025 Heritage Festival of Arts and Culture—a vibrant gathering honoring the diverse Native American traditions of the Colorado Plateau. The festival is a unique opportunity to connect with Indigenous artists, dancers, musicians, and cultural experts, and shop stunning artwork sold directly by Navajo, Hopi, Hopi-Tewa, Acoma, Zuni, Laguna, Cochiti, Yavapai-Apache, Santa Clara, and Santa Domingo artists. The Heritage Festival is more than an art market—it’s an occasion to hear stories, share conversations, and deepen your understanding of the Indigenous cultures that continue to shape the Colorado Plateau.

Purchase tickets in advance and learn more.
