Arts

For Lois Becenti, weaving has been both a livelihood and a way of life for six decades.

Navajo artist Elmer Yazzie chose not to paint the familiar mountains and waterways for his Northern Navajo Fair poster. Instead, he created a portrait of a multigenerational family gathered before Tsé Bit’ą’í, a scene that speaks to the bonds that hold a household together

A group of artists gathers monthly with easels and paints, capturing the changing light on canyon walls and mesas. Their mission extends beyond artmaking: they’re building a bridge between generations.

The power of art to heal was at the center of a workshop led by Khalid Honie last Tuesday afternoon at the Navajo Nation Library

The echoes of the resilient Diné past will soon resonate through the Navajo Nation Museum.
