The IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts (MoCNA) recognizes “Women’s History Month” and honors contemporary Native women every month of the year. For March, we give special recognition to Indigenous female artists, filmmakers, poets, writers, curators, art professionals, academics and students who have exhibited or presented at MoCNA in 2015 to the present. These amazing women continue to break barriers and bring Native feminist discourse to the forefront. They are outstanding in their fields, hold important roles in their communities and their narratives are echoed in their practice. We applaud and will continue to support contemporary Native women in the arts.
