Arts & Culture Family Featured Music & Events Fara Illich March 2, 2010

If you aren’t festival-ed (yep, festival-ed is a word) come to the Heard Museum this weekend for Arizona’s largest Indian market! If you don’t, you’ll pass by and hear all the music and see dancing and amazing artwork (both traditional and contemporary) and stand on the sidewalk with a frown on your face!
Indian Fair & Market 070So in order not to frown, visit the 52nd Annual Heard Museum Indian Fair & Market this Saturday and Sunday, March 6 and 7, at the world-famous Heard Museum in Phoenix. Take the Light Rail to the Encanto/Heard Museum station and join in the fun!
More than 650 American Indian artists from all over the country, among the best in their fields, will be on hand for two days of shopping.
Art prices range from less than $20 to way more than $10,000–there’s something for every budget!
