Now that the holidays are behind us - - oh wait, they are only just starting for 2023! Now that we are waking up to the New Year and remembering the gifts that were a hit, let me introduce you to our Shop Native page with NativeAmerican.Travel. A place where you will find unique, one-of-a-kind items for your loved ones, besties, and yourself all year long!
We encourage our artists, galleries, museums, and food artists to keep making what they make. They are working on great authentic Native-made gifts and products you can explore effortlessly. At AIANTA we love sharing talented artists and their work with you.
We are adding new artists and products regularly, so check the page whenever you need something different. Find something distinctive or handmade. You want your gifts to remind people that you think they are special and deserve a gift that reflects your relationship with them.
We make sure that the items are from recognized tribes and tribal members. We want to support the efforts of Native American crafters and their Tribes. This is a way that we all can support small businesses and provide diversity in shopping experiences.
