Ella Rose Bednorz, who is 8, knows where she will be in November. She will be at the Autry Museum of the American West, in Los Angeles, California, because every year the museum holds the American Indian Arts Marketplace.
It's an arts fair and it is the largest of its kind in Southern California. About 200 Native American artists go there to sell their work, and Ella Rose's grandmother is one of them. Her name is Peggy Fontenot. She makes beaded jewelry, and she is also a photographer. Other artists sell paintings and sculpture, while some sell baskets and other arts and crafts.
The Marketplace helps people learn about Indian heritage and tribes. It also helps people learn about Native Indian ceremonies and dances, and kids can take part in craft activities. There are also many dance and music performances.
Artists at the fair belong to more than 40 tribes. Ella Rose's family is from the Patawomeck, Potawatomi, and Cherokee tribes.
