Welcome to Zuni Pueblo MainStreet
Ko’ do’ dewanan deyaye?
(Hello! How are you doing these days?)
Zuni Pueblo became the first Native American community to be designated as a MainStreet Community in the United States in July of 2012.
Zuni Pueblo MainStreet is an economic revitalization and community improvement program that uses the Main Street America Approach™ to guide our work. We support Zuni’s art industry and local businesses through corridor improvements, education, historic preservation, and the beautification and promotion of the historic community as a destination and civic pride. We strive to create a place where residents can feel a stronger sense of place and visitors can enjoy the unique Zuni culture, spend time shopping, and consider a destination point.
Zuni Pueblo is a unique and unparalleled mix of beauty, fortitude, and vision. As residents of Halona: Idiwan’a (the Middle Place of the world), we have been able to live and thrive over many centuries utilizing only what was provided to us by Awidelin Tsitda (Mother Earth). Despite many changes throughout history, the Zuni way of life is not fundamentally different today than when Europeans first made their way to Halona: Idiwan’a in 1539.
