The IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts (MoCNA) is proud to present its 2024–2025 IAIA BFA Exhibition, showcasing the exceptional talent and vision of emerging Indigenous artists from the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) Bachelor of Fine Arts programs.

The 2024–2025 IAIA BFA Exhibition highlights the dynamic and innovative works of graduating IAIA students, reflecting a broad range of media, styles, and themes. From painting and sculpture to digital art and installation, the exhibition celebrates the diversity of contemporary Native art while addressing critical issues and exploring cultural identity, resilience, and creative expression. 

“MoCNA’s upcoming BFA exhibition provides a platform for new voices in Indigenous art to be seen and heard,” says MoCNA’s Curatorial Assistant Stephanie Stewart (Navajo and Kiowa). “It is an inspiring reflection of their artistic journeys and a glimpse into the future of contemporary Native art.” 

The exhibition is co-curated by IAIA Student Curator Christine Adams (Tlingit) and IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts (MoCNA) Curatorial Assistant Stephanie Stewart (Navajo and Kiowa).
