Ed Archie NoiseCat and Todd LoneDog Bordeaux had been showing their art  for over a decade together from Seattle to Indianapolis to Phoenix and Santa Fe. As their paths crossed and their friendship grew, so did their outlook on marketing and show ideas. The seed for a Native American/First Nations gallery formulated when the artists met at the Eiteljorg Museum in June 2013. Seven days later, they had the lease to 241 Delgado street in Santa Fe NM. Come by and see the works of the talented group of of artists they represent.
