100 Years of Shonto        A historical gem in the heart of the Navajo Reservation in Northern Arizona.

 

Traditions  

 

Ms. Miner's 6th grade Art classes were asked to illustrate a Navajo tradition that is very important to them. The original drawings are on 11X17 inch paper and were colored using colored pencils. This art work was sent to a middle school in India as part of an art exchange program.
