To create the 2016 Kachina Award, Saddletree Research has commissioned Hopi Kachina artist Joe Duwyenie of Third Mesa, Hopi Pueblo, in northern Arizona to carve six Kachinas, one for each of the winners. The Kachina chosen for the 2016 award is the Sun Kachina, called the Tawa Kachina by the Hopi people. The Sun Kachina represents strength of spirit, growth and abundance.
