Native Artists Membership

Artists can apply by filling out our online application. We recommend this process. The application will not be complete without supporting documents and payment. Applicants will not be required to share their photo on their profile. Instead they can use a picture of their work. Each artist decides what will go on their profile when they create their profile. (Please see the examples on our Guild Directory page.)

Please Note: To qualify for this membership, the artist must be a member of an official state-recognized tribe and not a federally recognized tribe as described in the SRTAG by-laws. If you are unsure if your tribe is an official state recognized tribe, please contact SRTAG for verification. (Click Here)

If you are a federal tribal artist, non-tribal artist, business or wish to support our guild, please return to our membership page and apply for one of the Supporter Memberships.
