• The Poeh Museum •
(Tewa poeh, "pathway") is a museum in Pojoaque, New Mexico, U.S.A.
It’s traditional name is “Po’su wae geh”, which translates to “water gathering place” in the Tewa language.
::
In 1988, the Pueblo of Pojoaque established the Poeh Cultural Center as the first permanent tribally owned and operated mechanism for cultural preservation and revitalization within the Pueblo communities of the northern Rio Grande Valley.
::
The Poeh has since become a resource for Pueblo people to learn the arts and culture of our ancestors.

Music: By Tony Duncan, “Grandmother Moon”
from the album Earth Warrior (Light of our Ancestors)

Here, at the Poeh, old rhythms of life and ways of making beauty are still important. In the Tewa Pueblo language Poeh translates to “path” and the Poeh Cultural Center embodies that pathway.

TRIBALLY OPERATED & OWNED SINCE 1988
OVER 100 TRIBAL NATIONS SERVED.

“Remember the sky that you were born under,
know each of the star's stories.
Remember the moon, know who she is.
Remember the sun's birth at dawn, that is the
strongest point of time. Remember sundown
and the giving away to night.
Remember your birth, how your mother struggled
to give you form and breath. You are evidence of
her life, and her mother's, and hers.
Remember your father. He is your life, also.
Remember the earth whose skin you are:
red earth, black earth, yellow earth, white earth
brown earth, we are earth.
Remember the plants, trees, animal life who all have their
tribes, their families, their histories, too. Talk to them,
listen to them. They are alive poems.
Remember the wind. Remember her voice. She knows the
origin of this universe.
Remember you are all people and all people
are you.
Remember you are this universe and this
universe is you.
Remember all is in motion, is growing, is you.
Remember language comes from this.
Remember the dance language is, that life is.
Remember.”

VIRTUAL TOUR: DI WAE POWA
__________________________________

100 of the pots from six pueblos (Pojoaque, San Ildefonso, Ohkay Owingeh, Santa Clara, Tesuque, and Nambé) were successfully returend home and were reunited with the descendants of their makers. The six Tewa-speaking Pueblos — Nambé, Pojoaque, San Ildefonso, Ohkay Owingeh (formerly San Juan), Santa Clara, and Tesuque — line the Rio Grande north of Santa Fe.

After several years of negotiation, the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, has agreed to a long-term loan with the Poeh Museum & Cultural Center (in Pojoaque, NM) for the exhibition Di Wae Powa: Return of Historic Tewa Pottery.

Enjoy the photos and try to imagine the hands of the makers working the clay from earth to finished pieces. They Came Back: Di Wae Powa.

More information from New Mexico’s Governor’s office.

#stayhome #newmexiconews #update #poehcenter #communitynews #besafe

The timeline for reopening New Mexico depends upon New Mexicans.

Gathering with people and failing to stay home will worsen the spread of this virus. It will lead to more illness and death.

We cannot win this fight if we let our collective guard down.

Thank you Santa Fe Community Foundation for your support!

Find our Native community resources at, www.poehcenter.org/support

Today, the Santa Fe Community Foundation announces a sixth round of grants through the COVID-19 Response Fund with total grant awards now well exceeding a half million dollars.

In this sixth round, the following 12 nonprofits were awarded a total of $57,500:

•Collaborative Educators Network/Santa Fe Botanical Garden
•Fathers New Mexico
•Gerard's House
•New Mexico Coalition to End Homelessness
•New Mexico School for the Arts-- Arts Institute
•Performance Santa Fe
•Pueblo of Pojoaque for the Poeh Cultural Center
•Rosie the Respirators/NM Voices for Children
•Rural Community Assistance Corporation
•Santa Fe Youth Symphony Association
•Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra
•Women's Jewelry Collective/Solace Crisis Treatment Center

Over the past six weeks generous donors have responded to the urgency of the crisis with profound giving and we feel privileged to have stewarded those contributions to more than a half million dollars in grants to nonprofits serving Santa Fe, Rio Arriba, San Miguel, and Mora counties.

To date, the COVID-19 Response Fund has been able to provide over $537,400 in grants to 88 organizations addressing community needs.

While still supporting emergency issues like food security, grants are increasingly addressing the important educational needs to keep our children’s learning moving forward with the closure of schools and also to shore up the income security of residents across our region. For six weeks in a row, we have mobilized and delivered resources to nonprofits that are keeping our communities strong through this crisis, but we also need to recognize that needs are only increasing and we hope every person who can give to the Fund will do so.

To apply to the COVID-19 Response Fund at the Santa Fe Community Foundation visit:

santafecf.org/nonprofits/grantseekers

Tax deductible donations* to the COVID-19 Response Fund can be made in the following ways:

Visit SantaFeCF.org or by calling (505) 988-9715. Text “covid” to (505) 333-4714 to give.

*The Santa Fe Community Foundation is not taking an administrative fee for this Fund. 100% of donations received are directed to nonprofit organizations serving our region.
