This spring, the gymnasiums at Shiwi Ts’ana Elementary School, Zuni Middle School and Zuni High School filled with the sounds of bouncing basketballs, squeaking shoes and cheering families as young players built skills and confidence through the Zuni Youth Enrichment Project’s 2026 Basketball League. Running from March to mid-May, the league served 172 children ages 6-12.

ZYEP’s annual basketball league remains one of its most popular youth programs. Beyond basketball fundamentals, the league emphasizes teamwork, mentorship, confidence-building and healthy habits — and this year marked the first time ZYEP opened the league to 6-year-old participants, introducing many children to organized basketball for the first time.

Learn more about this year's league, and what the coaches and parents had to say about it!

For three days at the Desert View Watchtower, visitors gathered around tables filled with Zuni art as three young artists explained their work and carefully wrapped pieces that would soon travel home with people from across the country and around the world. By the final day, a surprising number of the items they showcased in the Grand Canyon Cultural Demonstration Program had sold.

For Vanicka Neha, Tiyana Haloo and Joseph Lucio, the May 11-16 trip to Grand Canyon National Park marked the culmination of the Zuni Youth Enrichment Project’s six-month Advanced Artist Apprenticeship, an intensive professional development program for the top students from ZYEP’s Emerging Artist Apprenticeship cohorts. Made possible with the support of the Bezos Family Foundation, the current program began Nov. 17, 2025 and wrapped up the week of May 18.
