“Next up, we’re going to go to the Department of the Interior. Inside this building is a wonderful treasure – it’s called The Indian Craft Shop.”

                       Lynette Jennings, Home Design Show, Discovery Channel
 

“The room is filled with the kind of carefully selected Indian crafts you might expect to find in a prestigious gallery on Canyon Road in Santa Fe. Instead it’s in the middle of Washington, D.C.”

                       Southern Living Magazine
 

“Hidden Gem in D.C.”

                       American Style Magazine
 

“Surrounded by six stories on three sides, the American Indian Sculpture Garden is an artistic oasis in a building with a history of art.”

"Special store, special people. In 1981 I visited this store to buy gifts to take to an official trip to visit Russian scientists. The items I gave were much appreciated by the Russians and I felt glad to be able to give something truly American."
 
"I learned from my mother that she and her mother loved to shop here. My grandmother's silver bracelets and earrings, purchased in this shop, I have today. I live in Iowa now, but each year when I visit Washington, The Indian Craft Shop is on my agenda. Beautiful objects! (Des Moines, IA)"
