Curated by the SITE SANTA FE Young Curators, Contemporary Roots: New and Old Traditions is an exhibition exploring representations of tradition, newly-adopted or generational, in contemporary culture. On view at the Santa Fe Community College Visual Arts Gallery from Fri, April 5 – April 19, 2024, artists in this exhibition interpret what tradition means to them.

Contemporary Roots: New and Old Traditions is curated by Ainsley Drinkard, Ashley Loredo, Hanbi Park, Kaitlyn Loredo, Naeemah Thurman, Sara Barrionuevo, Sofia Garcia, and Tara Lujan-Baker.

Young Curators is a free after-school program for high school students. In this program, the Young Curators work together to decide on a theme for an art exhibition, select what pieces to include, write critically about art and the exhibition, and bring an exhibition to life.

Young Curators is made possible by generous funding from Bank of America.
