He shares details about the annual Navajo Rug Show & Sale which provides "a marketplace for Navajo artists to sustain themselves in their traditional way through the sale of their incredible artwork. The Rug Show is the only event of its kind where Indigenous artists set their own prices and receive 100% of the proceeds from their sales in a way that honors their culture, traditions, and teachings."
