KESHI: THE ZUNI CONNECTION

      Keshi (kay-SHE) is the traditional greeting of the Zuni Pueblo people who live in beautiful western New Mexico. Our store is called Keshi The Zuni Connection because of our close ties with the people of the Zuni Pueblo. Established in 1981 as a co-op for Zuni arts and crafts, Keshi has always maintained personal relationships with individual carvers, jewelers, and potters. We continue to buy directly from the Zuni people. Our reasonable prices and complete authenticity reflect this. We host one of the largest selections of Zuni fetishes in the world and we feel honored to be involved with these kind and generous people. We welcome you to call or visit Keshi and experience a Zuni connection for yourself.

       The Keshi Foundation

      In 2016 the Keshi Foundation (TKF) was created as a public charity 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation and sister organization to the Keshi gallery (Keshi, Inc.). With seed money from Keshi, Inc. and other donors, The Keshi Foundation Board and Advisory Committee review relevant and culturally appropriate projects to support and channel funds to those causes. With utmost respect for the Zuni People and with their vital input and collaboration, The Keshi Foundation acts as an outreach organization which receives, considers, and selects individual and group needs in the pueblo and assists in meeting those needs.
      To learn more about the Foundation and its project(s) please visit the
      Keshi Foundation website.
