Still makes me chuckle that it’s presented by the corn council and soybean alliance

Glad you started this thread! Tell me, do the artists change much year to year? Like, what proportion changes, if you could estimate? Still pondering if we might go. I missed out on touring the fabulous Eiteljorg art galleries and intend to rectify that. (But did get to the state art museum and grounds, very impressive.)

So I saw a list of the artists for this year when I clicked on the site. Unfortunately I cannot figure out how to make a link to the internet (I’m so good with some things online, but others I can’t heads or tails of). It looks like there’s quite a few of the same names, and some I hadn’t seen before. Unfortunately Ira Custer’s name was not on it 
I don’t think I could guesstimate the proportion of artists that changes. But it did seem like there were quite a few familiar names.

Oh, that does look really interesting!! Unfortunately we are in an incredibly busy time at work right now, and that’s a Thursday, so I can’t go.
I just did a quick look and scrolled down to the list of artists. There’s well over a hundred. That is something I’ve noticed different from the past (pre-covid); there are more artists.

Well, you think I would have been able to figure out how to link an actual article by now.

Thank you. I bow to your ability…
But Mary Tafoya will be there, and the gentleman I bought the ring from last year, and a lot of other interesting artists. I’m having to be a bit more careful with my $ this year, but I’m saving up!

Regarding the Eiteljorg Indian Market, do dealers exhibit as well or just artists? In other words, is there any vintage jewelry for sale?

Thank you. I’ll try that next time. I’ve been able to start a post with a link, just haven’t been able to insert it.
Many, many years ago they used to have some dealers come in from Gallup and bring crates of pawn. I’ve posted a number of pieces from them on here in the past (I actually have a few pawn tickets that say Toby Turpen’s) but they don’t do that anymore, during the market anyway. Now it’s just the artists. I have a feeling it may have been taking away from the artists income.

You read my mind Tom, I was going to ask the same thing about vintage jewelry.

You might keep an eye on their website. They used to do a big vintage jewelry event in November for Christmas shopping. But I don’t know if they do that anymore, because I usually can’t get down there in November.
Jeez….wished I knew about this museum earlier. I have visited Indianapolis a number of times…B1G ten football championship and then visited my son a few times when he lived there. I would have loved to see the museum. Almost tempted to make the trip in June.
