Join us on May 8th from 5 to 7 PM for the opening reception of Summer Winter, an exhibition of handwoven garments by Margaret Roach Wheeler and textile artworks by Mahota Textiles, the first tribally owned textile company in the U.S. This exhibition highlights Wheeler’s contributions to contemporary Indigenous fashion design; brings attention to the broader network of Indigenous craft traditions in the U.S.; and pays tribute to Indigenous self-determination. Members of the press are welcome to join us starting at 4:30 PM for an exhibition preview. From 5 to 6 PM, Wheeler will give an artist talk.

This opening reception coincides with the opening of the inaugural Native Fashion Week Santa Fe. Headed by Indigenous fashion expert Amber-Dawn Bear Robe, Native Fashion Week Santa Fe celebrates Indigenous designers, showcasing their innovations to entertain, educate, and evolve the fashion landscape. In collaboration with Native Fashion Week Santa Fe, our sister gallery, form & concept, is hosting a trunk show by award winning jeweler Neeko Garcia (Diné (Navajo)/Hispanic) in the gallery shop.
