Eighth Generation

Shopping Downtown Seattle

Eighth Generation is a Seattle-based art and lifestyle brand owned by the Snoqualmie Tribe. Through our online shop and flagship store in the heart of Downtown Seattle, we provide a strong, ethical alternative to “Native-inspired” art and products through its artist-centric approach and 100% Native designed products. Our Inspired Natives® Project, anchored by the tagline “Inspired Natives®, not Native-inspired,” builds business capacity among cultural artists while addressing the economic impact of cultural appropriation.

Eighth Generation was founded in 2008 when artist, activist, and educator Louie Gong (Nooksack) started customizing shoes in his living room. Now as the first Native-owned company to ever produce Native-designed wool blankets, as well as one of the only companies making wool blankets in Washington State, Eighth Generation is a proud participant in the global economy.
