BOARD OF TRUSTEES

When the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture recently opened its renovated Here, Now and Always exhibition, a new section, “Reflecting and Imagining,” had a striking addition—a full length window.

Sponsored by Lynn Godfrey Brown, a longtime museum supporter and former Museum of New Mexico Foundation trustee, this exhibition section includes a Jicarilla Apache teepee as a prominent feature. Museum curators and advisors agreed that a window would bring the outside world inside, grounding the exhibition in a sense of place that defines the stories and the Native peoples it celebrates.

“The view to the northwest from that side of the museum is one of the most unparalleled vistas in Santa Fe,” says Tony Chavarria (Santa Clara Pueblo), the museum’s curator of ethnology. “The piñon and juniper covered hills of Santa Fe, with the Jemez Mountains, the Pajarito Plateau and amazing clouds in the distance, is a sight of beauty and of the ancestors.”

A large photographic mural and ample bench seating will be added to the section soon, creating a special place for rest and reflection within the exhibition.
