Overview
30 @ 30: 30 Native Artists, 30 Artworks, Made in Their 30s, is a special exhibition curated by acclaimed Indigenous artist Tony Abeyta. Opening November 7, 2026, the exhibition brings together works by 30 contemporary Native American artists currently in their 30s, alongside select examples by influential artists whose breakthrough achievements emerged during the same pivotal stage of their careers.
Featured artists include Fritz Scholder (Luiseño), Jaune Quick-to-See Smith (Salish-Kootenai), T.C. Cannon (Caddo/Kiowa), and Earl Biss (Apsáalooke/Crow), among others. Through painting and a range of additional media, the exhibition examines a formative period of artistic development when creators move beyond academic training and early experimentation to establish a distinct visual language and professional identity.
