Homage: Honoring Those That Came Before Us

We are excited to announce our 2nd Annual Native American Heritage Month Matriarch Mixer on November 15th! We proudly present our featured mural artist, Danny Upshaw, as he creates Unheard Harmony's Homage Mural Experience. We continue to celebrate Native American Heritage Month by uplifting Indigenous Excellence and paying Homage to our powerful Matriarchs, Native Business and Indigenous Entrepreneurship!

Join us for our NAHM event powered by Matriarch Mixer. All relatives and friends welcomed.

The Matriarch Mixer is part of Indigenous Community Collaborative’s mission to advance economic opportunity for Indigenous entrepreneurs by creating spaces for connection, collaboration, and community building. Each mixer is co-hosted with fellow sisters and business owners Turquoise Devereaux (@indigenousskye), Mikenzi Dupree (@stillshelives), Jillian Waln (Konekted Media), Katherine Jacobs and Roshan Spottsville (@photographybyroshan).
