Funding the Future of Native Fashion

For over a decade, SWAIA has been a pioneer in uplifting Native fashion through runway shows, offering a stage where beadwork, textiles, and couture craftsmanship come alive What many don’t see is the work happening behind the scenes year-round, across communities, in homes, studios, and kitchens where Native designers are still doing far more with far less.

The fashion industry remains one of the most exclusive spaces to break into For Native designers, that barrier is doubled by systemic inequities, lack of access to funding, and erasure in mainstream markets SWAIA is working to change that with your help.

Scan the QR Code today to make a donation to our Native-led nonprofit Your support helps fund year-round programming, runway production, and career-building opportunities for Indigenous designers. Together, we can create a future where Native fashion is not only celebrated but sustainably supported.
