 AMERICAN NATIVE ARTS

The
rich cultures and traditions of American Natives
encompass
many forms and styles of artwork.
These
fine artists and museums represent just a few
of
the many tribes and geographical areas.
For many Native
People making and selling
their artwork
is their only form of income.
Please remember
that unless Reservation Natives
leave to work
and pay into the Social Security system,
they will not
receive any retirement income.

Artist with a phone number,*
