Volunteer at a Bazaar!

Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer for the Cultural Survival Bazaars! We absolutely could not host these wonderful annual events without volunteers to help everything go smoothly. Volunteering can involve greeting the public and answering questions, flyering, setting up behind the scenes, supporting Indigenous artists in their booths, running Cultural Survival's booth to sell items, and more, including time with Indigenous artists, learning about Indigenous cultures, and enjoying this festive event. Minimum 5 hours required. If you stay for 5+ hours, a meal will be included. We look forward to having you join us!

Host an Artist

​Open your home to Indigenous artists by becoming a Cultural Survival Homestay Host. As a host, you'll provide a welcoming space for artists participating in our Bazaars, fostering meaningful cultural exchange and connection. Hosts offer a private or shared room, light breakfast, and transportation assistance when possible. In return, you'll gain firsthand insight into Indigenous traditions and artistry, enriching your understanding and appreciation of diverse cultures. This is a unique opportunity to support Indigenous rights and creativity while building lasting relationships. Join us in creating a warm, inclusive community for our visiting artists.
