This annual event, aims to showcase the rich cultural heritage and artistic expressions of Native American communities. In collaboration with the Museum of Indigenous People, this year's exhibition promises to be a vibrant celebration of both traditional and contemporary art forms.

A Diverse Collection of Artworks

The "Journeys in Spirit" exhibition features an impressive array of artworks that include paintings, basketry, jewelry, photography, beadwork, ceramics, and more. The collection highlights the extraordinary talent of Native American artists from various tribal backgrounds, such as Hopi, Cherokee, Dine', Yaqui, Choctaw, Muskogee Creek, Yavapai, and others. Each artist brings their unique perspective and cultural narrative to their work. Many artists continue to live within their tribal communities, while others have established lives outside these environments but remain deeply connected to their roots.

Cultural Significance and Educational Opportunities

Art has always played a vital role in Native cultures; it serves as a means of expression, a vehicle for storytelling, and a means of preserving traditions. The exhibition allows attendees to gain insight into these meanings through personal interactions with the artists.

The "Journeys in Spirit 2025" exhibition at 'Tis Art Center & Gallery is not just an art show but an immersive experience that fosters understanding and respect for Native cultures while providing economic opportunities for artists.
