The Haskell Indian Art Market was off to a successful start Saturday. Artists from tribes across the country united at Haskell Indian Nations University to show off their artwork, including pottery, metalwork, beadwork and beyond, with hundreds of Lawrence community members in attendance.
In this episode of Lawrence Times TV, you’ll meet four of the exhibiting artists and hear how their Native heritage inspires them.
The annual art market resumes from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 10 at the Haskell Pow Wow grounds, 2535 West Perimeter Road.
