With Femme Fest 4 we aim create a safer space that centers Indigenous women & femmes and amplifies their music while also fostering an inclusive, welcoming, and accessible environment for all. Our goal is to cultivate a feminist space around the joy of sharing music, a space where performers and attendees feel comfortable and, at the same time, honor the identities and boundaries of others. In purchasing or reserving tickets to this event, you agree to the following code of conduct:

Haskell’s Tommaney Library hosts Femme Fest 4. Haskell is a unique and diverse intertribal university committed to advancing sovereignty, self-determination, and the inherent rights of tribal nations. Founded in Lawrence, Kansas, in 1884 as a government boarding school named United States Indian Industrial Training School, Haskell has evolved over its 140-year history. Today, Haskell serves the educational needs of American Indian and Alaska Native people across the United States by offering innovative curricula oriented toward American Indian and Alaska Native cultures. We encourage Femme Fest 4 attendees to visit the Haskell Cultural Center & Museum to learn more about Haskell’s remarkable past through exhibits, collections, and archives of living tribal materials, traditions, and cultural arts.
