Dr. Shelly C. Lowe (Navajo), president of the Institute of American Indian Arts, wrote a letter to reaffirm the institute's commitment to honoring Indigenous Peoples.
It is with pride and gratitude that I share that the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) will observe Indigenous Peoples’ Day each year on the second Monday in October.
This annual observance reflects IAIA's ongoing commitment to honoring the diverse cultures, languages, histories, and leadership of Indigenous Peoples.
At IAIA, we celebrate Indigenous cultures every day.
