Join us for a conversation with our Director of Curatorial Affairs, Becky Bloom, and Kelvin Yazzie, a ceramic artist and SUU alumnus. They dive into Kelvin’s origin story, beginning with his childhood on the Navajo Reservation in Church Rock, New Mexico, where he herded sheep, caught things on fire, and played with mud. As his story takes shape, Kelvin discusses how he finds fulfillment in the arts, as well as the impact special people had on his journey–mentors, students, his mother–each leaving their mark on his path as an artist.
