West Elm Rugs inspired by the MIAC Collection
We Love ® | West Elm and MIAC Collaboration
The Museum of Indian Arts & Culture is dedicated to collecting, preserving and promoting Native American traditions of the Southwest. The Museum of Indian Arts & Culture has collaborated with West Elm to develop an exclusive collection of handwoven rugs inspired by design elements from the museum's extraordinary textile and basketry collections. Five rugs inspired by design elements from early 20th century Native textiles and baskets were developed with West Elm. A portion of the sales generated from sales of these rugs returns to MIAC to fund education programs, exhibit design and acquisitions.

The creative talents of Native artists, past, present and future give purpose to the museum. By actively collecting and preserving art and artifacts made by tribal artists from all time periods, MIAC endeavors to educate its visitors about ancient yet living Native cultures, and provide living artists with examples of their ancestors' gifts.
