Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian visual artists and craftspeople face unique challenges with the shift to online sales and continued limits on attendance at local arts and crafts fairs.
This program is part of a series of monthly webinars held the second Thursday of each month through December 2022. The series is organized by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in collaboration with the U.S. Department of the Interior’s Indian Arts and Crafts Board and the nonprofit Indian Dispute Resolution Services, founder of The Acorn Project for Native American small businesses.
All programs are recorded and made available for viewing online after the program date. The sessions are free, and you may register for any of the webinars as they are announced. For a complete list of upcoming dates visit the series page.
