SWAIA announces 'ambassadors' for traditional arts program

The Southwestern Association for Indian Arts announced the first "ambassadors" for a new program that will promote traditional arts.

Darryl Begay, a jeweler from the Navajo Nation, and Cippy CrazyHorse, a jeweler from Cochiti Pueblo, will serve as Traditional Arts Ambassadors. They will be joined by a traditional potter who will be named by the end of the year.

The program was announced at SWAIA's sixth annual Winter Indian Market on Saturday.
