IAIA to Dedicate the Robert Martin Academic Center
The Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) will dedicate its academic building as the Robert Martin Academic Center on Monday, November 3, 2025, 3:00–4:30 pm on the IAIA campus. The dedication recognizes President Emeritus Dr. Robert Martin (Cherokee Nation) for his 18 years of service and leadership that helped expand IAIA’s academic offerings, facilities, scholarships, and national profile. Dr. Martin’s national impact was recognized when President Joseph R. Biden presented him with a 2022 National Humanities Medal at the White House on October 21, 2024, and soon after, Santa Fe Mayor Alan Webber proclaimed November 8, 2024, as “Dr. Robert Martin Day” in Santa Fe.
TELL OUT MY SOUL: STEWARDSHIP 2026
As we begin our Stewardship journey, let us pause in prayer and listen for God’s call to share our gifts and stories. Stewardship starts with reflection—taking time to ask how God is inviting us to participate in the ongoing story of faith. Through prayer and discernment, we discover the unique ways we are called to magnify the Lord in our lives and community.
