Grady and Mary in Tennessee


"Our Indian art collection started in 1986 with a vacation trip to New Mexico and the purchase of 10 Pueblo pots. Since then it has grown to 220 pottery items, 105 fetishes, nearly 50 pieces of beadwork and 10 Navajo rugs. We make a trip to the Southwest each year, attending the Eight Northern Pueblos Arts and Crafts show and visiting different galleries and shops to find new pieces. When we retire from teaching, maybe we can manage more than one collecting trip per year."
