Arrowsoul Art Collective’s mural installation fuses concepts of the beginning, present, and future of Indigenous pictographic arts. Based in the Southwest region, Arrowsoul Art Collective creates graffiti walls and mural paintings inspired by the evolving meanings of “Future Old School” and “Indigenous Freeways.” The artists create new visions of the Southwest landscape through blending letter structures, illustrative architecture, and textured palettes of places of home. Arrowsoul Art Collective’s projects reunite communities along the Rio Grande through creative participation. Located in the Art Through Struggle Gallery, their newest mural will be on display through June 28, 2026.
Free for museum members, or with admission.

Charlotte Jackson Fine art presents A Whiter Shade of Pale | A Group Exhibition opening Saturday, April 4 through May 5, 2026, with an opening reception Saturday, April 4, 2026, from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m.
Charlotte Jackson Fine Art presents this year’s single-color exhibition, A Whiter Shade of Pale | A Group Exhibition, focusing exclusively on the color white. The exhibition aims to highlight the unique qualities, nuances, and variations found within this often-underestimated shade.
White has been selected as Pantone’s color of the year, motivating us to take a closer look at its significance and its many distinct shades. By delving into the subtle differences and interpretations of white, the exhibition encourages viewers to appreciate the depth and diversity within this seemingly simple color.
The exhibition includes artists Charles Arnoldi, Edith Baumann, Max Cole, Lies Kraal, William Metcalf, Liane Nouri, Helen Pashgian, Michael Rouillard, Phil Sims, Jeremy Thomas, Clark Walding, and Brian Wills.
The Same Place at the Same Time is a series of three exhibition rotations that trace how art lives within, emerges from, and connects Taos’s creative communities. By gathering a varied array of arts—wood-fired ceramics, volunteer radio, and Pueblo foodways—into the rotating gallery space, the exhibition highlights the many interconnected maker groups within our larger Taos community. The inclusion of visual art, music, and food emphasizes the diversity of creativity that constructs thriving cultures and communities.
The exhibition is process-focused and collectively developed, documenting how these groups operate and co-curated by the groups themselves. It explores the wide-ranging organizational structures of these collectives, in turn allowing us to consider how these frameworks influence art making, relationships, and the rich culture of Taos. It asks how we might further nurture this expansive web of connections, both inside and outside of the gallery space.
Harwood Museum of Art is honored to collaborate with local artists, makers, and cultural leaders who shape and define Taos’s remarkable artistic landscape.
