Indian Market & Festival

No, we're not talking about South Asian Indians, but the Native American (or First Nations) Indians!

The annual Indian Market & Festival at the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art is back 25-26 June at the museum in White River State Park, 500 West Washington Street, Indianapolis.

There'll be more than 140 Native American artists and performers at this year's event. Tickets are available at the gate for $10 (children 17 and under are free).

Bonus: Here's how you say "hello" in several different Native languages:

Halito (Chickasaw & Choctaw)
Aya (Miami)
Yá' át' ééh (Navajo)
Niit (Tsimshian)
