The West Valley Arts Council is celebrating Indigenous storytelling and culture through a new visual art exhibition titled "IMPRINT: Native American Stories," on display at the Arts HQ Gallery from May 16 through June 19.

The show is part of the council’s annual "IMPRINT Series," a three-part exhibition program that highlights cultural diversity in the arts. This installment features Arizona-based Native American artists who explore their personal and cultural narratives through a variety of styles and mediums.

Featured artists include:

• Shiloh Ashley, a digital artist and professor at Arizona State University
• Thomas “Breeze” Marcus, a muralist and fine artist represented by Blue Rain Gallery
• Jacob Meders, a printmaker and associate professor at ASU
• Renee Dennison, a photographer and multimedia artist
• Velma Kee, a poet, visual artist, and assistant curator at the Heard Museum

In addition to the main exhibit, visitors can view a front-wall mini-exhibit by Sun Bauer, a self-taught artist originally from Korea. Bauer’s realist oil paintings depict landscapes and animal portraits with intricate detail and emotional depth.

The Arts HQ Gallery is located at 16126 N Civic Center Plaza in Surprise. It is open to the public Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
