MEZTLI PROJECTS
Meztli Projects supports the creative development of Native and Indigenous artists.
We were founded with the intent to address the severe lack of artistic opportunities for Native and Indigenous Artists as-well-as systems-impacted youth living and creating in Los Angeles County (Tovaangar). This work takes shape in several forms such as for-hire opportunities, advocating for truly equitable resources such as but not limited to funding and culturally authentic (not just relevant) programming, and training future and emerging cultural workers.

Artemiza (Ciara Green) (Tongva, Chumash, Chicana) is a visual artist working with painting, mixed media, and video art. Her Tongva & Chumash heritage is at the heart of her creative process, drawing inspiration from her ancestors, relatives, and the ongoing journey of awakening her Native identity as a woman. Her work is often a reflection of that emotional and spiritual reconnection — a way to honor where I come from and who I continue to become.
She’s a graduate of Cal State University Northridge and has shown her work in community galleries and museums.
