Erica Lord Exhibition Opening at the Community Gallery June 26

Join us in celebrating the work of Erica Lord, an interdisciplinary artist whose practice explores Indigenous identity and culture.

As the recipient of the Art is the Solution FY25 grant from the City of Santa Fe’s Arts Commission, Lord draws on her diverse heritage and lived experiences to create artwork that challenges conventional representations of race and culture.

 

Exhibition Opening:
Date: June 26, 2025
Time: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Location: Santa Fe Community Gallery

The exhibit will be on view through July 26, 2025. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience Erica Lord’s innovative work combining art, science, and Indigenous heritage.

The City of Santa Fe’s Community Gallery invites New Mexico artists to participate in the upcoming “UNESCO Creative City Artists” exhibition, celebrating Santa Fe’s designation as a UNESCO Creative City of Crafts and Folk Art. The show will feature original and existing works in heritage arts, including pottery, fiber arts, woodcarving, metalwork, performing arts, and emerging traditions like lowrider art and murals. Artists whose work reflects Santa Fe’s rich Indigenous, Hispanic, and multicultural traditions, especially those blending innovation with craft, are encouraged to apply.

This call is open to artists living or exhibiting in Santa Fe and surrounding regions, including pueblos. Submissions from intergenerational family groups, as well as both emerging and established artists, are welcome. Artist portfolio submissions have been extended to July 15, 2025.

The exhibition opens on October 22 and runs through November 29, 2025. Portfolios should include a letter of interest, a brief bio, artwork images with details, and, if available, links to websites or social media.

Submissions will be reviewed by a jury of arts professionals, with selections based on artistic excellence and alignment with heritage arts themes. Categories include fiber, pottery, wood, metal, performing arts, and new traditions. For full details, submission forms, and contact information, visit the Community Gallery at 201 W. Marcy Street or online here.

For questions, contact Gallery Manager Rebecca Aubin at rraubin@santafenm.gov.
