Announcing "Unearthing Futures / Desenterrando Futuros"

June 27, 2026–February 28, 2027

"Unearthing Futures / Desenterrando Futuros" explores adobe as a living practice linking art, architecture, and ancestral knowledge across the Americas. Featuring installations by Gabriel Chaile, rafa esparza, Santino Gonzales, Joanna Keane Lopez, Ronald Rael, and Christine Howard Sandoval, the exhibition considers how earth, water, and fiber—shaped by hand and sustained through communal care—carry both tradition and transformation.

Extending beyond the Harwood Museum of Art through partnerships with Fort Garland Museum & Cultural Center and historic sites across the region, the exhibition traces adobe’s pathways across landscapes and generations, revealing its role in shaping shared histories and possible futures.

🎉 Opening Celebrations: Saturday, June 27 @ Harwood Museum of Art + Sunday, June 28 @ Fort Garland Museum & Cultural Center

Sponsors to date: Henry Luce Foundation, Terra Foundation for American Art, Betty T. Foster Endowment Fund, The Sherman and Joyce Scott Family Foundation, 203 Fine Art, Sheree Livney and Steve Hanks, Marcy Rumsfeld and Santiago Vaca, and Janet Holmberg and Shawn Berman.
