The UNMAM Beaumont Newhall Study Room presents works by Jaune Quick-to-See Smith and other artists, linked to the exhibition Jaune Quick-to-See Smith: All My Relations, which runs at Tamarind Institute February 12-April 10, 2026. Open hours feature prints from the UNMAM permanent collection and Tamarind archive by Quick-to-See Smith and other artists.
Quick-to-See Smith (Salish and Kootenai, 1940-2025) was a distinguished alumna of UNM. She received a master’s degree in Visual Arts in 1980 and an honorary doctorate in 2008. UNMAM is honored to have many of Smith’s artworks in our collection, including every print she made in collaboration with Tamarind Institute over the course of 40 years.
Visitors may arrive any time between 2 PM and 4 PM and will be escorted to and from the study room by UNMAM staff. Because UNMAM’s exhibition galleries are closed for Collections Year, visitors will be asked to remain in the study room for the duration of their visit and to respect signage and ongoing collections work throughout the museum.
For questions, email Curator of Collections and Study Room Initiatives Angel Jiang at ajiang1@unm.edu.
