Lindsey Pena is an Emmy award winning journalist who is thrilled to be in beautiful San Diego. She joined the 10News team in April of 2017 as a reporter and anchor of 10News at 5 p.m.

SAN DIEGO — November is Native American Heritage Month, and San Diego County has the largest number of tribal governments and reservations in the U.S.

"I'm really excited to represent our people. It's also a little sad that it's taken us this long, but you know — here we are," says Ruth Ann Thorn, the gallery's founder. Featured prominently in the gallery is the work of Native American artists from all over the country, like Jeremy Salazar. "We are a modern day people, so we have artists that are coming in still holding on to their culture, but bringing in contemporary views of that art," Thorn says.

Thorn's hope is to give those creators a platform and the opportunity to have meaningful interactions with the community.
