Our goal is to create an environment that fosters kinship, connection, and community building centering our innate knowledge and values. Matriarch Mixer is created by Indigenous Community Collaborative and co-hosted with fellow sisters and business owners Turquoise Devereaux - @indigenousskye Mikenzi Dupree - @stillshelives and Jillian Waln - Konekted Media and Katherine Jacobs 💕
The evening is about celebrating the brilliance of Matriarchs today while honoring the cultural and generational foundations that make this excellence possible.
We welcome ALL Indigenous-Owned Businesses, Entrepreneurs and Professionals! We look forward to seeing you! RSVP is required and is limited to 2 per person.
To Indigenize the networking experience, we incorporated an earring exchange. If you're anything like us, you own many pairs of earrings.
To Participate Instructions:
- Bring a pair of your gently used earrings that you want to exchange with another
- Place earrings on a designated table. We will provide an earring card to share details about your earrings to share with their new owner.
- Each participant will receive a number which will correspond to their time to “shop” Numbers will be randomly selected throughout the night.
- Prior to the event, please take a moment to complete a quick questionnaire
PLEASE NOTE: We limit 1 (one) Pair of earrings to be entered into the Earring Exchange. Any additional earring will considered a donation. Please gift earrings that you would appreciate receiving.
