Sponsorship Opportunities

The 20th Annual NAYA Gala and Auction, the largest celebration of National Native American Heritage Month in the Pacific Northwest, will be held at the beautiful Portland Art Museum in downtown Portland. We invite you and your guests to join us as we gather to celebrate community and culture.

The Annual Gala and Auction brings together Tribal leaders, partners, elected officials, and friends, and all those dedicated to the health, safety and success of our youth and families. Our Gala celebration will include a traditional Native American-inspired meal, special performances, and our live and online auctions featuring beautiful Native artwork from across the nation.

We invite you to join our community of sponsors. Your sponsorship is an investment in our Native community and the robust, innovative, wraparound programming that helps everyone thrive. Please review our sponsor benefits below.
