Call for Native artists and host tribes for 2026 railroads forum in Sacramento

Organizers of the 2026 Railroads in Native America Forum are seeking Native American artists and tribal representatives to help shape the upcoming event in Sacramento. According to the Railroads in Native America Steering Committee, artists affiliated with a Native American tribe may submit original artwork to serve as the Forum’s visual identity. The submission deadline is May 31, 2025.

The committee is also inviting Native nations with homelands in the Sacramento area to act as “Host Tribes” by joining planning efforts, sharing community history and promoting the event. Host Tribes are not required to provide funding. Those interested in joining the steering committee may email rrnativeamerica@gmail.com.
