Spencer Beckwith On The Arts

Fiesta de Santa Fe has been a defining tradition of the city's cultural life for over 300 years. This year, the annual celebrations will not include La Entrada, a pageant about the reclaiming of Santa Fe by Spanish forces after their expulsion by the Pueblo Indians in 1680. That decision was controversial and divisive. Hoping to reconcile disagreements in the community is an exhibition at Santa Fe's Institute of American Indian Arts. Reconciliation runs through January 19, 2020 at IAIA's Museum of Contemporary Native Arts .
