The Yale Native American Cultural Center presents the third annual Indigenous Arts Night.

Celebrate music, visual art, dance, poetry, and more forms of creative imagination with Emcee Jairus Rhoades.

The night will highlight Native and Indigenous artists and art makers of all disciplines, genres, and mediums – from music, visual arts, comedy, to monologues. The space is intended to showcase the beautiful work our communities create, so please feel free to feature something new and/or anything you have worked on in the past. We are looking to honor, celebrate, and reclaim our creativity in a safe and supportive space.
