For over a century, the Southwest Association for Indian Arts has produced the Santa Fe Indian Market, the largest art fair showcasing work by living Indigenous artists and designers.

On Saturday, Aug. 15, and Sunday, Aug. 16, approximately 1,000 artists from nearly 250 Indigenous nations will present work at booths in and around Santa Fe Plaza. According to SWAIA鈥檚 executive director, Jamie Schulze (Northern Cheyenne/Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate), about a third are participating for the first time this year. Works range from contemporary painting and sculpture to basketry, pottery, clothing, jewelry and more.

Indian Market is a significant economic event, typically generating around $160 million in revenue.

鈥淲hen you鈥檙e looking at the 近距离内射合集 States as a whole, in the 2020 census, there鈥檚 (approximately) 400,000 small Native-owned businesses,鈥� Schulze said. 鈥溾�� Indian Market represents 2% of that in one weekend. That鈥檚 pretty profound, just for a two-day period.鈥�

A family affair

Many Indigenous makers view art as part of an ancestral inheritance. That is certainly true for Trent and Kyle Lee-Anderson, the twin sons of famed Din茅 silversmith Allison 鈥淪nowhawk鈥� Lee.

鈥淲e were both taught by our father 鈥� He learned from my an谩li, my grandmother 鈥� that鈥檚 where he learned to make jewelry. So, he passed it on to us from her,鈥� Trent Lee-Anderson said. 鈥淲e鈥檙e fourth-generation jewelry makers on our mom鈥檚 side. Then, on our dad鈥檚 side, we鈥檙e third.鈥�

Lee-Anderson said he and his brother have been coming to Indian Market with their family since they were children.

鈥淲e were little kids running around Indian Market even before we started making jewelry,鈥� he said.

Their father began teaching them the art of jewelry making when they were around 11 or 12.

鈥淲e all started on copper in the beginning to practice, trying to get a steady stamping hand and to make straight lines,鈥� Lee-Anderson said. 鈥淲e moved up to sterling silver. 鈥� It鈥檚 a little softer than copper, so it鈥檚 a little bit more malleable.鈥�

Today, Trent and Kyle Lee-Anderson are both master silversmiths, making traditional and contemporary jewelry.

The fashion designer Leslie A. Deer (Muscogee) is part of a creative lineage, too. Although she may have been the first to gain renown for her designs, she said she is not the first clothing maker in her family.

鈥淢y grandmother made clothing for my mother and my mother鈥檚 siblings when they were young. Then, as I was growing up, my mother made my traditional clothes for me, and sometimes contemporary clothes,鈥� Deer said. 鈥溾�� I come from a line of women who were pretty handy with fabric and needles and thread, and I鈥檓 glad to carry on that tradition in my family.鈥�

For Indian Market this year, Deer is bringing a collection of cool, comfortable summer clothing inspired by ancient Muscogee motifs. Some of these motifs had been forgotten for generations, and Deer is part of a movement to revive them.

鈥淲e were one of the tribes who were removed from our homelands. 鈥� Our ancestors had to leave everything behind, and a lot of it was lost until archaeologists came and started poking around and looking for things,鈥� Deer said. 鈥溾�� But nowadays, I know there are a lot of us Muscogee artists out there who incorporate these motifs into what we do. It is really heartwarming to see so many artists picking these (motifs) up and using them again, so they are not lost to time and forgotten forever.鈥�

One of her favorite designs is the sun circle, which consists of concentric circles with rays of light emanating from it.

鈥淭he first time I ever saw it, it just really moved me,鈥� Deer said. 鈥溾�� It represents our world, our community and the Creator.鈥�

Ty Moquino (Santa Clara Pueblo) has been coming to Indian Market since he was 10 with his mother, Jennifer Tafoya, an award-winning potter.

鈥淢y mom was the one who introduced me to pottery,鈥� Moquino said. 鈥淚n the early days, it was a way to fund my hobbies, like playing video games and such. She showed me how to make pottery and how to navigate going to galleries and selling and showing at markets.鈥�

While his mother is best known for etching realistic imagery onto the surfaces of her pottery using a sgraffito technique, Moquino focuses more on the overall form of his pieces. For the past few years, he has been making ceramic masks, he said, and he embraces the unpredictability of the art-making process.

鈥淚 guess I like to play more with the clay as the form 鈥� and then it鈥檒l just turn into whatever it wants,鈥� Moquino said. 鈥淚鈥檝e heard that from a lot of other artists, too. Working with clay, it kind of just becomes what it wants to be.鈥�

Moquino said he is sharing a booth with his mother this year, and he encourages visitors to stop by.

鈥淚 really like talking to people about art,鈥� he said.

Navigating the market

The sheer size and variety of works at Indian Market can sometimes overwhelm first-time visitors, but a booth guide is available on .

A user-friendly, searchable database is also available through Native Art Directory, at . The brainchild of local Din茅 artist and entrepreneur Sheyenne Sky, Native Art Directory allows users to create custom lists of artists and booth numbers to print out ahead of time before heading to the market. It is not affiliated with SWAIA.

Other arts organizations plan to host satellite events during Indian Market. Indigenous House, a Santa Fe-based media company, will present a series of free public events at the historic La Fonda hotel on the Plaza. Their 鈥淩ez Roundup Honkey Tonk鈥� on Saturday, Aug. 15, will feature food by James Beard Award-winning Chef Sean Sherman (Oglala Lakota Sioux), music by indie rocker Sierra Spirit (Otoe-Missouria and Keetoowah Cherokee) and other special guests. Because space is limited, organizers recommend following on social media to know when the RSVP invitation goes live.
