In 2014 NNABA: 585 Members, 330 youth track participants, from 49 different tribes, eight states and one Canadian providence. Every year Northwest Native American Basketweavers Association (NNABA) and a host tribe have a Gathering. The Annual Gathering moves to a different tribal location each year. Gatherings have been held in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Moving the Gathering allows members of all tribes to participate without incurring prohibitive travel expenses. It also allows us to showcase local weaving specialties and honor the finest local weavers. Source: Northwest Native American Basketweavers Association
