+++ Celebrate Mawnuhk +++

Join us for the next Final Friday, July 25, from 5 PM - 8 PM. Every Final Friday this Summer, we'll have a free community art project and you can enjoy Mawnuhk – an art exhibition by the Nuwu Art Collective, celebrating five years of creative liberation. #stillhere

Sadly, IAF recently lost a large 4-year grant due to federal budget cuts. This has hurt our artists and impacts their families. Yet we refuse to fold and will continue offering free arts programming.

What can you do to help? First, keep coming out to events. We're also expanding our fundraising and retail sales efforts, so you can visit the online store or become a member with a monetary donation.

Inspiring Future Generations

Future generations are at the heart of our community. Through artistic and cultural education, we integrate traditional practices with contemporary techniques, creating a learning experience that honors the past while embracing the future. Our programs ignite passion and creativity in young minds, equipping them with the skills and knowledge to carry their heritage forward.

Community Events

For five years, IndigenousAF has sponsored monthly and annual community events in Las Vegas, such as traditional weaving workshops with master basket weaver Loretta Burden, Mexica New Year with Malinalli Productions, and much more. IAF also partners with Nuwu Wonumeegah (Southern Paiute Dancers) and other Indigenous artists, performers, and knowledge keepers. IndigenousAF is thankful to be working with Nevada Arts Council, Nevada Humanities, Meow Wolf Foundation and the San Manuel Gaming and Hospitality Authority, who have helped support IAF programs over the years.
