At 74 years old, Elsie Bia stands as a living testament to the sacred art of Navajo weaving—a tradition not merely of craft, but of spiritual lineage. For the Navajo people, weaving is a sacred act, a prayer in motion, where each thread is a line of a song, each pattern a story of the cosmos. The loom is not just a tool, it is a
portal through which the weaver communes with Spider Woman, the mythic teacher of weaving, who taught the first loom to the Dineh people. Learn more at www.navajorug.com

“I am excited to come to Corning to explore the aesthetic potential of glass to express my ideas in different ways than I can with ceramics. The versatility of the material intrigues me, and I look forward to seeing how it enhances the way I tell stories through my work," said Virgil Ortiz (Cochiti Pueblo) in 2015, ahead of spending a week at The Corning Museum of Glass. There, Ortiz experimented with glass to further develop his series related to the Pueblo Revolt. Better known for his work in mediums such as such as clay, fashion, and graphic arts, Ortiz is featured alongside fellow Native artists that have experimented with melding the aesthetics and properties unique to glass with traditional ways of knowing.

Beginning Sat., Nov. 15 through Fri., May 29, 2026, our museum in New York City (One Bowling Green) will host the traveling exhibition "Clearly Indigenous: Native Visions Reimagined in Glass." The show explores glass art as a medium for Indigenous stories, designs, and contemporary issues. The exhibition traces 45 years of Native glass art and showcases approximately 120 artworks by 29 Indigenous artists. Also featured are works by Dale Chihuly, who established the first glass program at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, and collaborations between Native glass workers, Yolŋu (Aboriginal Australian) artists, and Māori artists.

"Clearly Indigenous: Native Visions Reimagined in Glass" was originated by the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, Santa Fe, New Mexico, where it was curated by Dr. Letitia Chambers and Cathy Short (Potawatomi). The traveling exhibit was curated by Dr. Chambers and is toured by International Arts & Artists.
