Long-Term Partnership Vision

ISF is seeking not only a one-time contribution but a long-term strategic partnership.

We invite you to consider:

  • Exploring continued support for 2027 festival programming and beyond

  • Establishing an annual contribution to ISF

Sustainable partnerships are essential to ensuring the longevity, growth, and cultural impact of ISF.

Our shared investment today helps ensure that future generations can experience and celebrate Indigenous culture in meaningful ways.

Please note that the Indian Summer Festival Fundraising Committee and Board of Directors are open to discuss customized sponsorships to help accommodate the budget of any potential sponsor.
