Indigenous Youth Invited to Take Part in Ohketeau Talent Showcase

Indigenous youth are invited to register for the 4th Annual Ohketeau Indigenous Youth Talent Showcase, taking place Saturday, June 20, 2026, from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. in Mashpee.

The showcase is open to Indigenous youth ages 5 to 25 and welcomes all talents and gifts, including art, jewelry, instruments, singing, dance, magic, poetry, multidisciplinary work, and anything that makes youth feel proud. All participating youth will receive a $200 stipend.

Ohketeau Cultural Center is a Native-led cultural organization whose name means “a place to plant and grow” in the Nipmuc language. Through cultural programming, youth opportunities, community gatherings, workshops, and the arts, Ohketeau works to uplift Indigenous voices and support the health, wellness, creativity, and cultural continuity of Native communities.

This annual showcase creates space for Indigenous youth to be seen, heard, celebrated, and encouraged as they share their creativity with community. Space is limited, and registration is required by May 31, 2026.

The event will be held in Mashpee, with the address provided to those who register.
