Wejibàbandan December Spotlight

This month, we’re proud to highlight Niiostoseraah Thompson, a Haudenosaunee artist from Akwesasne Mohawk Nation and founder of Small Feather Empire, a luxury Indigenous brand grounded in cultural integrity and high-end design.

As a member of the Wejibàbandan Incubator Program, she’s preparing for her next chapter of growth with structure, support, and bold intention. This is just the beginning for Small Feather Empire, and we’re excited to cheer her on every step of the way.
