Zuni Olla Maidens Win National Heritage Fellowship Honor
New Mexico artists join the 2024 National Heritage Fellows: the Zuni Olla Maidens dance group from Zuni Pueblo and Diné quilter Susan Hudson. Edaakie describes the Olla Dance balancing pots atop the head as a yearlong communal craft marking reverence for nature. The group, led by Crystal Sheka’s lineage, travels for performances across the United States and Canada, showcasing pottery and Zuni attire.
