RangerJim

“Ranger Jim Sing Along”
Thanks to all who turned out, the benefit for the Northwest Symphony Orchestra was a success!

Tribal Expressions owners Rob & Jeri Brooke presented a giant check to Diane Macewicz, president of the Northwest Symphony, during the intermission of the orchestra's performance on March 16th, 2008 at Maine West High School. Performances by Ranger Jim, Bronco Billy and the Arlingtones men's barbershop chorus helped raise more than eleven hundred dollars for the orchestra. On behalf of all of us at the gallery I sincerely thank our performers and their families for their purchases made in support of the NSO. Thank you!

The NSO will present its fourth and final concert of the season on Mother's Day May 11th. An annual family favorite, the symphony POPs concert, with flowers for all the ladies, will feature soprano Lauren Curnow and tenor , Edward Mout. The concert begins at 3:30. for more information see www.northwestsymphony.org.

Roderick
Steve & Yvonne Lucas

Roderick Tenorio along with Steve & Yvonne Lucas Return to the gallery for our Spring Show May 2-4

All of us at Tribal Expressions invite you to pause for a weekend of exhilarating beauty to meet Santo Domingo Pueblo jeweler Roderick Tenorio. Roderick has promised to fill the gallery with his incomparable silver and gold rings, pins, pendants and belt buckles. For the best selection, please join us between 6 and 9 p.m. Friday night. Show continues Saturday and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.

Although Roderick will not be in attendance on Sunday due to QVC appearances scheduled in Philadelphia, we also have invited potters Steve and Yvonne Lucas. Widely known for their prize winning pottery, Steve and Yvonne will be showing never before seen designs and pots made especially for Tribal Expressions customers.

Our piece de resistance at this event is a fresh selection of paintings by Hopi/Laguna artist, Joe Maktima. Joe has honored the gallery with more than a dozen new works. We invite those who wish to stimulate the economy with government incentive checks to do so where you are guaranteed to receive American products created by American artists.

Come visit the artists, see our expanded gallery, and help us with your purchase to insure that we remain "alive with the art and spirit of Native America."
