Event Details

Join us for a special evening on October 17, 2024, as the Rotary Club of Santa Fe proudly presents the annual Distinguished Artist of the Year event, honoring the renowned photographer Cara Romero. This exclusive celebration will benefit and take place at New Mexico School for the Arts, featuring light fare and finger foods followed by an inspiring award presentation to recognize Romero's contributions to contemporary fine art photography.

Romero, an enrolled citizen of the Chemehuevi Indian Tribe, brings a unique blend of fine art and editorial photography, deeply influenced by her diverse upbringing and cultural anthropology background. Her work vividly portrays Indigenous and non-Indigenous cultural memories and experiences through theatrical compositions and dramatic colors, illuminating the modernity of Native peoples and their worldviews.

Following the award presentation, attendees are invited to an alcohol-free reception at Romero's nearby studio, where you can enjoy a variety of refreshing mocktails and mingle with fellow art enthusiasts. This intimate gathering offers a unique opportunity to explore Romero's captivating work in her creative space, fostering connections and celebrating the vibrant spirit of Indigenous art.
