On June 19 and 20, the Newo Yotina Friendship Centre, Canada Border Services Agency, and the Regina Airport Authority will host an Indigenous Artisan Market in honour of National Indigenous Peoples Day.

The market will showcase more than 15 artists, all of which will be available to talk about their work. Items for purchase include beadwork, ribbon skirts, paintings, dream catchers and more. Bannock and orange shirt pins will also be available for a donation to the Newo Yotina Friendship Centre.
