Celebrate with us!

The E-ship Hub is a brand-new space in the heart of Shiprock where local entrepreneurs, artists, and change makers can gather, get support, and grow their ideas into thriving businesses.

Whether you're selling food, building apps, or launching a nonprofit — the Hub is here for you. Drop in for free business help, attend a workshop, meet other local go-getters, or just hang out and find inspiration. Come see what’s possible — the Change Labs Shiprock E-ship Hub grand opening is a free celebration open to the public!

  • It’s your chance to step up and tell an audience about your vision and your business. A panel of judges will award $25,000 in cash prizes to 10 pitch participants. Selected participants get 7-minutes to pitch their business to a live audience. Emcee’d by Cody Artis! Sign up to compete!

  • Tour the space and enjoy catering by Bidii Chidi, live music, Navajo tea bar, and sweet treats prepared by talented Native food vendors.

  • Hear a welcome address from Change Labs’ leadership and event sponsors. We’ll also announce the winners of Pitch Your Hustle before celebrating the grand opening with poppers and streamers!

  • Get here before 6:30pm for an informal tour of the Shiprock E-ship Hub, live music, and live screen printing of the new Change Labs Shiprock t-shirt by Nicks Print Shop.
