Mission:NAICA: Native American Indigenous Cinema and Arts Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting contemporary Indigenous cinema and art the world over. Our mission is to present the work of established and emerging Indigenous artists in an innovative, new media environment that challenges, both critically and historically, the concept of Indigenous art in mainstream media. It is in this environment that NAICA aims to bridge cross-cultural communication, to educate the public at large, and to promote cultural evolution and the pursuit of high art.
