Native Treasures: Indian Arts Festival, Santa Fe’s only museum-quality Indian art show, just gets better and better. The show now features over 180 Native American artists, who are specially invited by the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, to represent the best and brightest of the Indian art world. In fact, many of the artists at Native Treasures are included in the Museum's permanent collection.

Participating artists represent a wide range of tribes and pueblos. This is a terrific opportunity to find high-quality pieces by both the established masters and the best of the emerging artists.

In 2010, we are adding an "Emerging/Youth" section to showcase up-and-coming young talent whom we believe will be the important artists of the future.

Native Treasures: Indian Arts Festival benefits the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture. Each artist generously donates a portion of sales to the Museum’s programs. So you can support your favorite artists and the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture at the same time!

A pre-sale and benefit cocktail party is held Friday night, May 21. Pieces for sale are specially selected by the artists who will also attend. You have "first pick" of this fine artwork while you mingle with the artists and other collectors. Tickets are $75, including plentiful hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and wine -- and an Early Bird ticket to the show on Saturday.

During the show on Saturday and Sunday, enjoy music and entertainment provided by local and Native artists.

Please help us celebrate brilliant Native American artists and support the programs of the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture.
