Journeys in Spirit 2025: Traditional and Contemporary Native Art

The ‘Tis Art Center & Gallery is proud to present "Journeys in Spirit 2025: Traditional and Contemporary Native Art,” a collaborative exhibition with the Museum of Indigenous Peoples. This highly anticipated annual event, which runs from Thursday, May 22 through Tuesday, June 24, will showcase the rich cultural heritage and artistic expressions of Native American communities. Featuring an extraordinary collection of works — including paintings, basketry, jewelry, photography, beadwork and ceramics — the exhibition is free and open to the public. Visitors are also invited to attend an artist reception during Prescott’s 4th Friday Art Walk on May 23 from 5–7 p.m., where they can watch a painting performance by a live painter named Chroma, engage with other artists and learn more about the creative process behind the works on display. Journeys in Spirit highlights the creativity and talent of Native American artists from a range of tribal backgrounds, including Hopi, Cherokee, Dine’, Yaqui, Choctaw, Muskogee Creek, Yavapai and more. Some artists continue to live within their tribal communities; others have built lives outside these environments, while remaining deeply connected to their heritage. Through their work, each artist shares a unique perspective and cultural narrative. The ‘Tis Art Center & Gallery extends its gratitude to the City of Prescott and the Prescott Area Arts and Humanities Council for their continued support of this exhibition.

Leading Ladies- directed by Cheryl Schaar

In this hilarious comedy, two English Shakespearean actors, Leo and Jack, find themselves so down on their luck that they’re performing "Scenes from Shakespeare" on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania. But then, what luck! They hear that dear old Florence of nearby York, PA is about to die and leave her fortune to her two long lost English nephews whom she has never seen. For Jack and Leo it is the work of an instant to turn themselves into nephews Max and Steve and grab the cash. And that’s when the complications set in… Romantic entanglements abound, as Some Like It Hot meets Twelfth Night in this screwball comedy filled with bad behavior, high heels and a world of comedy. Fast-paced and bursting with mistaken identities and clever plot twists, Leading Ladies is a highly combustible and increasingly raucous farce!
