Muscogee Nation Hosts Second Annual Mvskoke Art Market
Artwork by more than 80 artists representing over 20 Native American tribes to be featured.
TULSA, Okla. – The Second Annual Mvskoke Art Market is set to take place at the River Spirit Casino and Resort in Tulsa, Oklahoma on April 22-23. This year’s event is anticipated to be an expanded version of last year’s inaugural success.
Muscogee Nation Cultural Center and Archives Program Manager, ShaVon Agee and her team worked with the River Spirit staff to add more booth space which increased the featured artist count from 60 to 82. The two-day list of events includes presentations on indigenous creativity and Mvskoke culture, traditional demonstrations and an all-native comedy show. “Our goal was to expand and offer additional programming and cultural presentations to increase attendees’ overall experience. I believe this year’s lineup will be a great success,” Agee said.
Various works of art from paintings, sculptures, pottery, carvings, textiles and more will be available for viewing as well as purchasing. The Mvskoke Art Market opens to the public at 10 a.m. on both days and admission is free.
