The National Museum of the American Indian and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage announce a Call to Artists for the First Americans Festival Indian Market, September 21-26, 2004 in Washington, D.C. The Indian Market will be part of a six-day Festival that will feature over 400 performers and artists, and is expected to draw about 600,000 visitors. The National Museum of the American Indian is seeking as wide a representation as possible from arts and crafts vendors to display and sell works of Native arts and crafts from the U.S. (including Hawai'i), Canada, Central and South America, and the Caribbean.
The First Americans Festival Indian Market will be located on the terraces of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum (NASM), which is adjacent to the National Mall, the Festival site, and the National Museum of the American Indian.
