The mission of the American Indian Community House Gallery was to support and promote contemporary Native American art in both traditional and non-traditional forms, educate the general public about the diverse experiences of contemporary Native people, and to act as a resource for the local and national Native American arts community.

The Gallery was formed in 1977. We present four to five exhibitions per year curated by Native American staff and guest curators. We also hosted public lectures by visiting artists and curators, presented an annual Indian Market for artists from across the country, and trained Native American individuals in gallery operations.

Since our founding we have shown the work of over 250 contemporary Native American artists. Although some of the work has included traditional Native American art forms such as ceramics, quilting, basketry and jewelry, the emphasis of the gallery has been artists who work in non-traditional, contemporary media such as painting, sculpture photography and installations.

The Gallery was one of very few non-profit institutions nationally who continued to exclusively support and feature contemporary Native American art.
