The Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA), the only four-year school devoted to contemporary Indigenous arts, could lose all of its federal funding beginning October 1 if President Trump’s proposed federal budget is passed.

IAIA, which describes itself as the “birthplace of contemporary Indigenous art,” opened in 1962 as a high school on the Santa Fe Indian School campus, one of the two federal boarding schools established in New Mexico during the late 19th century with the aim of forcibly assimilating Native children. A decade later, IAIA opened its now-renowned contemporary arts museum. 

A spokesperson told Hyperallergic that the institution receives some funds from the private sector and other grantmakers, but that those funds are directed toward scholarship programs.
