Tailinh Agoyo, founder of We Are The Seeds, launches a new marketplace for indigenous artists.
“Project Antelope, a new online marketplace for Indigenous arts, has launched for the new year. In 2024, Native artists are making their mark, and Project Antelope is leading the way.
Created as a centralized, year-round alternative to regional Native art shows, Project Antelope.com promotes artists from North America as well as around the world, selling a curated collection of traditional and contemporary visual art, jewelry, music, fashion, and home goods. Both casual shoppers and high-end collectors can find treasures on the site, but what sets Project Antelope apart from many other marketplaces is that the artists define for themselves what Native art is, setting their own standards for genre, medium, and style.”

“CAICU is a socially engaged public art series weaving together six culturally and historically significant Puerto Rican-themed gardens in Philadelphia’s Norris Square neighborhood created by community organizers in the 1980s. Led by Philadelphia-based curator Marángeli Mejía-Rabell and Puerto Rico-based muralist Celso Gonzalez, the project will strengthen community and public awareness of the neighborhood’s history and identity through public art and foster cultural exchange with Loíza, Puerto Rico.”
