Native Artist Talk & Studio Tour: Lynda Teller Pete

Lynda Teller Pete (Navajo) is a tapestry weaver born into the Tábąąhá (Water Edge Clan) and born for the Tó’aheedlíinii (Two Waters Flow Together Clan). The Teller family has been producing award-winning rugs in the traditional Two Grey Hills regional style for more than seven generations. While at SAR, Teller Pete will complete a tapestry and further develop resources to track and document single panel Diné dresses across institutions.

SAR’s Indian Arts Research Center (IARC) offers three artist-in-residence fellowships annually to advance the work of Native American artists. These fellowships provide time and studio space to the artists for exploration of new ideas and projects. At the end of each residency, the artists give a talk about their work and present an open studio tour.

Artist Talks take place in SAR’s historic Dobkin Boardroom for an in-person audience and on YouTube Live for online audiences.
