Relative Arts is an Indigenous-owned creative hub, community space, and shop located in NYC’s East Village in Lenapehoking. Founded by Korina Emmerich (Puyallup) and Liana Shewey (Mvskoke), Relative Arts is a space for contemporary Indigenous fashion, art, design, culture, and community.

Rooted in Indigenous Futurism, creative sovereignty, and collective care, our mission is to build an accessible, peer-run platform where Indigenous artists and cultural workers can create, collaborate, share knowledge, and thrive. Through retail, exhibitions, education, public programming, and Indigenous New York Fashion Week, we are building a sustainable Indigenous creative economy while celebrating our communities, challenging colonial narratives, and creating space for Indigenous futures on our own terms.
