Vallo<\/span> as a leading consultant. A member of the <span class=\"xn-location\">Pueblo of Acoma<\/span> tribe in <span class=\"xn-location\">New Mexico<\/span>, he served as governor in 2019\u201321, and has more than 30 years of experience working in areas of museum development, cultural resources management, repatriation of ancestors and cultural patrimony, historic architecture preservation, the arts, and tourism. Vallo curated the selection of works and wrote content for the digital experience, and identified selections from the community curators to incorporate into the project.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Pueblo people of the American Southwest represent some of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in <span class=\"xn-location\">North America<\/span>,&#8221; writes Vallo. &#8220;Two significant ancestral Pueblo settlements on this vast landscape include what are known today as Mesa Verde and Chaco Canyon. Pottery created at these places over a thousand years ago represents a form of material culture that is enduring and that has evolved over time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The pottery-making tradition is rooted in the enduring cultural heritage of the Pueblo people,&#8221; he continues. &#8220;Pottery-making is handed down from one generation to the next. In most Pueblos\u2026 the tradition is carried on through observation and a hands-on process of working with the clay and other materials.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Says Vilcek Foundation Director of Digital <span class=\"xn-person\">Brian Cavanaugh<\/span>, &#8220;By leveraging technology we amplify Native American voices and offer a window into the profound stories and traditions embedded within each vessel. The Vilcek Foundation embraces technology as a tool for empowerment, enabling the world to hear diverse narratives that have been woven through generations. This forges a path where Native voices are celebrated.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The exhibition of <i>Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery <\/i>is groundbreaking in many ways, as it is a community-curated exhibition of work originating in Native American communities that centers the lived experience and voices of Native American curators,&#8221; says Vilcek Foundation Curator <span class=\"xn-person\">Emily Schuchardt Navratil<\/span>. &#8220;We wanted to bring <i>Grounded in Clay<\/i> to life in the digital realm, to honor these pottery pieces and traditions, and to amplify the voices of the Pueblo Pottery Collective beyond the physical exhibition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>Pueblo Pottery: Stories in Clay<\/i> can be accessed at <u><a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3932738-1&amp;h=2086502213&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fpueblopottery.vilcek.org%2F&amp;a=https%3A%2F%2Fpueblopottery.vilcek.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/pueblopottery.vilcek.org<\/a><\/u>.
