urban Native communities

A new garden has been established in Beaumont, Texas, designed to support butterflies, bees and other local wildlife. The project highlights growing community interest in pollinator-friendly green spaces and urban habitats, adding to efforts in the region to protect insect populations and provide food and shelter for native species.

New York City hosted an Indigenous fashion show celebrating the city's urban Native community. The event, covered by Next City, is framed as marking a new chapter for Indigenous people living in the metropolis, using fashion to spotlight Native identity, creativity and cultural visibility far from tribal lands.
