Bridging the gap between art and craft is indigenous, a handcrafted gallery with an eclectic array of contemporary American fine craft from more than 150+ artists in our 2,000 square foot gallery in our NEW LOCATION in the historic shopping district of East Walnut Hills.

Local and regional artists are our focus, with a selection of works from artists throughout the United States.  The indigenous collection includes hot-worked glass, metal works, pottery, jewelry, fiber arts, prints, wood craft, art tiles, garden arts, mosaics, stained glass and more. Artists featured at indigenous employ a blend of traditional methods and contemporary design, all honoring the unique qualities imparted when an object is made by hand. 

Embrace the arts & crafts tradition and...

    ...let art become part of your nature!
