Considerations for the Past and Future of Santa Fe and Tesuque Pueblo
1.0 LU/HSW (pending)
Course Summary:
This session will explore one of the pillars of the AIA Framework for Design Excellence - Design for Equitable Communities.
Santa Fe was founded in 1610 and is known as the oldest capital city in the United States. However it was settled by Tewa peoples approximately 900 years ago and remains a spiritual center for Tesuque Pueblo, one of the nineteen Pueblo tribes located in New Mexico.
Former Tesuque Pueblo Governor, Mark Mitchell, and Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, Larry Samuel, will discuss the past and future of the region.
This will be a remarkable opportunity for New Mexico architects to engage directly with tribal leadership on how we can build stronger connections with the tribal communities that surround us and improve equity in the region.
