The various aspects of the American Indian experience are sharply presented in the many pieces and exhibits that are housed in the Wheelwright Museum Of The American Indian. This museum was built in 1937 by Mary Cabot Wheelwright to study the spiritual ceremonies of the Navajo Indians. After fifteen years of careful study, Wheelwright obtained permission to perform these rituals for historical and educational purposes. The museum also frequently presents Native American art exhibitions as well as an excellent gift shop that features pottery, paintings and rugs, as well as books and other items that colorfully tell the story of the Navajo tribe.

Santa Fe is unquestionably a celebration of various cultures, and these different influences can be seen in the various works of pottery at Jackalope Pottery. Choose from kachinas and pinon in one building and weathered cedar, terra cotta and kiva fireplaces in another. Jackalope Pottery's staff and management works hard to consistently provide an interesting and ever-changing inventory, and that is one of the many reasons why this is a favorite stop for both locals and visitors who want to take home a little piece of Santa Fe's uniqueness.
