The Heritage Program at the Museum of Northern Arizona

The Heritage Program features four festivals as well as monthly insight presentations. They highlight the cultures of the Colorado Plateau and encourage communication and the exchange of ideas between visitors, educators, and artists.

Hello everyone!
Our latest project as Heritage Program interns is a bit of new ground for us- we have been assisting with the creation of a new exhibit in conjunction with the Hopi Festival. The exhibit will feature pottery from the Hopi that was acquired after 1984. Along with the pottery there will be photographs of Hopi pottery in festivals past, and that's where we came in. Sorting through hundreds of photos dating back to the first Hopi festival in 1930, we selected images of our pottery demonstrators to put into the exhibit.
As we busily prepare for the Hopi Festival on July 6th and 7th, packing envelopes with name tags and table markers, we hope everyone visiting the Flagstaff area, and those who reside in Flagstaff and surrounding areas will come join us in what is sure to be the best Hopi Festival in 80 years!

Interns out!
