About Museum:
In 1971 the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA), then located on the Santa Fe Indian School campus, formed the IAIA Museum with a
two-fold
objective:
first,
as
a
museum
studies
teaching
facility
and
second,
as
a
public
venue
to
promote
the
understanding
of
its
educational
endeavors.
The
modest
origins
of
the
first
student
exhibitions
were
in
gallery
spaces
converted
from
the
School’s
old
Bath
House.
Time
has
revealed
the
Institute
and
her
students
to
be
significant
players
in
the
historical
development
of
contemporary
Native
art.
Correspondingly,
the
Museum’s
role
has
taken
on
an
additional
importance
as
well.
This
center
of
cultural
and
artistic
activity
exposes
IAIA
students
and
the
public
to
some
of
the
most
innovative
and
interesting
works
being
produced
today.
In 1991, an Act of Congress transferred to the Institute a Federal building, constructed in the Pueblo Revival style and listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The IAIA Museum relocated to its new permanent home in downtown Santa Fe, one block from the historic Santa Fe Plaza and the Palace of the Governors. The Museum’s collection has grown to house over 7, 000 works of art and has been referred to as the “National Collection of Contemporary Native American Art.â€
