Event Details
Join Curator MaLin Wilson-Powell and Artist Jonathan Warm Day Coming for an intimate conversation about the life and work of Eva Mirabal, who is currently featured in the exhibition Pursuit of Happiness: GI Bill in Taos. Following the program, Jonathan Warm Day Coming will sign copies of his book, Eva Mirabal: Three Generations of Tradition and Modernity at Taos Pueblo. Reserve your copy at the Harwood Museum Store while supplies last!
As a youth, Eva Mirabal attended the Santa Fe Indian boarding school in Santa Fe, where she studied in Dorothy Dunn’s legendary painting program. She enlisted in the army in 1943, and her full-time assignment was painting several murals at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. She also created a cartoon titled G.I. Gertie, about a Women’s Army Corps (WAC) who undermines military protocol. After her discharge in 1946, Mirabal taught for a year at Southern Illinois Normal University and then returned to Taos Pueblo. While nursing her elderly mother, she attended the Mandelman-Ribak Taos Valley Art School with her GI Bill benefits.
Support for this program is provided in part by New Mexico Arts, a Division of the Department of Cultural Affairs, and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Bios
Johnny Ortiz-Concha
Johnny Ortiz-Concha was born and raised in the high desert of Northern New Mexico in Taos and comes from generations of ancestors who have been born and raised on the same land. New Mexico in all it’s complexity is complicated to define, as is Johnny. His blood is a mix of various cultures that have been settling New Mexico for centuries, primarily Tu-ah-ta ( Taos Pueblo ) and Spanish ( from mother Spain ). Johnny is an award-winning chef and has worked in some of the most interesting restaurants in the country and even helped run them. Now Johnny is less a chef and is inseparable from the ecosystem he has been working at building that is / shed, where he is intimate with each step of the process that goes into a / shed dinner. Johnny first became enamored with food when his mother gave him a wild rose to eat and since has been delving into what it means “to cook”. Once a passion solely based within the confines of a restaurant, now involves numerous vernacular practices of his terrain and culture. A blurring of the lines between life and work.
Tiana Suazo
Tiana Suazo is the Regenerative Agriculture and Ranching Program Manager at the Center of Southwest Culture and a dedicated advocate for Indigenous food sovereignty and community resilience. A member of Taos and Jemez Pueblos, she previously served as Executive Director of the Red Willow Center on Taos Pueblo, leading farm operations, youth programs, and a farmers market while expanding grower support and food safety guidance. Tiana’s experience encompasses community engagement and cultural preservation, with a focus on bridging traditional knowledge and modern food systems. She holds a B.A. in Business Administration from Fort Lewis College and serves on the Boards of Directors for Ogallala Commons, Taos County Economic Development Corporation, Santa Fe Farmers Market Institute, and River and Birds Inc. A recipient of the 2020 Taos Women of Impact award, Tiana has traveled across the U.S. and to India, Italy, and Belize to learn from traditional and Indigenous foodways, seed saving practices, and food sovereignty movements.
