Show Opening Nov 15, Taos

The Millicent Rogers Museum (Taos) opens an exhibit of Navajo quilter Susan Hudson on Nov 15 (reception, 5-7pm). Our church has donated supplies to Susan’s Navajo Quilt Project, which teaches quilting and sewing to Navajo students. Come view Susan’s powerful figural quilts that chronicle Navajo history alongside vibrant works by others in her program.

“…You have never seen quilts like this before! Navajo artist Susan Hudson, the first Indigenous story quilter in the United States and a 2024 National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Heritage fellow, is joined by her community members from the multi-generational Navajo Quilt Project (NQP) in this vibrant exhibition at the Millicent Rogers Museum….” For more about the exhibit, go to: Quilted Survivance.

Susan’s powerful acceptance speech at the NEA Heritage Fellowship awards last year is at about 38:40 in the YouTube video of the awards ceremony:
