The exhibit focuses on the contemporary renaissance of Native American art in the Pacific Northwest. The pieces exhibited will include work from local artists such as Chuck Williams and Greg Robinson and will also showcase a variety of different media such as photography and printmaking.
Carrillo spent the summer in Seattle and Vancouver, B.C., compiling a research catalog that includes the history and work of local Native artists and information about all the contributing artists.
