Message from the President
July-August 2022
I’m pleased to announce that SAR has restarted public tours and events. Campus tours have resumed, as have tours of the Indian Arts Research Center—in the latter case, on a more limited basis in July as the IARC carefully moves more than a hundred Pueblo pots to the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture for the opening of Grounded in Clay on July 31. Updated information on tour availability can be accessed here. We continue to request that visitors wear masks when inside SAR’s buildings.
Meanwhile, our robust schedule of online offerings will continue indefinitely.
Our online events have given us new ways to share innovative content that illuminates topics of broad public interest. Online platforms allow us to serve our longstanding members as well as a growing global audience. I invite you to join us as we pursue SAR’s important mission by electronic means if you cannot participate in person. The list of upcoming events on this homepage is the best way to follow our in-person and online offerings.
