Jamie Schulze: Executive Director, SWAIA - Epi. 253, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

I had Jamie Schulze say today, she is just a terrific individual and I just love her upbeat, happy demeanor. You can just feel in her something that is giving. She's the perfect person to be the executive director of SWAIA. Jaimie is someone who really cares about the artists and understands the process. She has the responsibility of promoting not only the art, but the cultural sensitivity of participants that represent over 200 different tribes. So it's a big organization to control and this is her first full year doing it. We talk about some of the upcoming things that will happen at Santa Fe Indian Market, which is this year during the third week of August. It was interesting to hear her backstory growing up on the reservation in Montana, as well how she ended up at SWAIA and her commitment to the organization. Medicine Man Gallery is going to be sponsoring the best of show award for Santa Fe Indian Market for the next five years, which is a big deal because I've been going to the event for over 30 years and I feel a strong connection to the artisans there. To be able to give back to that community is very rewarding on a personal level.All that being said, it was very fun to get to talk to Jamie Schulze and I hope you enjoy the podcast as much as I did.
