The Craft Contest attracts submissions from some of the best artists in Indian Country. Last year's contest attracted over 150 submissions ranging from beadwork to paintings. The contest is divided into four categories-beadwork, ribbon work, fine arts, and miscellaneous.

PowWows.com's contest allows artists to display their crafts to a national market. The online format gives exposure to artists that would not normally have.

Prizes include a free cruise, Pendleton blanket, custom website, cash, and more!

This contest is unique because the members of PowWows.com determine the winners. Each member can vote on an item, and items with the most votes will advance until a winner is declared.
