Located just off historic U.S. Route 66 in Albuquerque, Arrowsoul Trading Post is a vibrant space where contemporary Native art, design and culture come alive. More than a gallery or shop, Arrowsoul celebrates Indigenous creativity in all its forms — from fine art and beadwork to jewelry, prints and locally designed goods — creating a cultural crossroads where tradition and innovation meet.

MISSION
The shop and collective focus on "Future Old School" concepts, blending ancestral Indigenous knowledge with contemporary urban art forms like graffiti and hip-hop.

ABOUT ARROWSOUL TRADING POST

The trading post features work from a wide range of Native Nations and communities, highlighting both emerging artists and established creators. Each piece reflects individual vision, cultural legacy, or creative reinterpretation, offering visitors a meaningful connection to Indigenous artistry rooted in land, community, and contemporary life.

Inside, guests can explore a thoughtfully curated collection of Native-made jewelry, including sterling silver, turquoise, intricate inlay work, and hand-stamped designs created by artists from Navajo (Diné), Pueblo, Hopi, and other Southwestern Tribal communities. Many pieces thoughtfully balance traditional techniques with modern aesthetics, appealing to both serious collectors and everyday buyers.

Beyond jewelry, Arrowsoul showcases textiles, beadwork, pottery, fine art prints, and apparel that reflect Indigenous creativity in both classic and contemporary forms. The space places strong emphasis on authenticity and artist attribution, ensuring that work is sourced directly from Native makers. Altogether, the gallery reflects the vibrant and ongoing presence of Native culture in the Southwest, inviting dialogue, appreciation, and direct support for the living Indigenous artists shaping the region today.
