Local Arts Seen: Visit AICHO for Unique Native Arts and Crafts

"Young Nanabozhoo" by Rabbett Strickland Giclee on canvas, $300.

Amazing piece by Leah Yellowbird.

Sometimes there are no more words. It feels redundant repeating how many interesting things have been happening at the American Indian Community Housing Organization facilities here in Duluth. This past Saturday there were numerous arts and crafts events here in the Twin Ports. One could hardly hope to see everything, but I did make my way to a couple places, and made sure to stop at AICHO's event in the Dr. Robert Powless Cultural Center at 202 West 2nd Street.

Even if you missed the event, there's a great gift shop there which is open throughout the week. I strongly recommend making time to visit. If you haven't already bought all the gifts you intended, you'll surely find something special here.

Where else will you find Native designs on iPhone cases.

The artwork alone is worth stopping to see. Works by Karen Savage Blue, Jonathan Thunder, Rabbett Strickland and Leah Yellowbird will be collectibles one day.
