We welcome the lovely month of May, our artTILE exhibit, our grand new selection of creative arrivals - and most importantly - you! - our fans & patrons! We invite you to see the exhibit and all of the many wonders of our artists' fine craft.

Enjoy the classics of the arts & crafts movement along with the extensive eclectic design directions from seven new artists exhibiting at indigenous for the first time. In addition to the new exhibitors, four of our year-round clay artists have added tiles to their repertoire and will be featured in the show!
