Tradewinds Native Marketplace

Tradewinds is a Native networking event and marketplace where friends, professionals, and artists come together to share stories, ideas, and opportunities. It is hosted by Na’ah Illahee Fund and co-hosted by our SUNN members, NAWDIM, and others, coinciding with the Pioneer Square First Thursday Art Walk.

Na’ah Illahee Fund is located in the Metropole Building in Pioneer Square and is dedicated to nonprofits serving communities of color. This marketplace is the only public event in our building, designed to uplift Native artisans and makers while fostering connections. Each event features a rotating craft area, local vendors, interactive activities, and a welcoming atmosphere filled with laughter and learning.

The event is free and open to the community, running from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, and includes a Native Vendor & Artist Marketplace, zero-proof refreshments, and local Native cuisine.
