In 1951, an arts silkscreen printing business named Tewa Enterprises was started in Santa Fe by Charles Barrows, a silkscreen printer, and Harrison Begay, the well-known Navajo painter. Tewa's mission was to hand silkscreen reproductions of Navajo and Pueblo paintings and make them available to a wide audience at low prices. Subsequently, the current owner, Cathie Sullivan purchased Tewa Enterprises and now the business has ceased work.
