Zinke promotes authentic American Indian art and craft WASHINGTON – Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke recently recorded a public service announcement highlighting the importance of purchasing authentic American Indian and Alaska Native art and craftwork in accordance with the Indian Arts and Crafts Act (doi.gov/ iacb/472017-secretary-zinke-promotes- indian-artists). Zinke is an adopted member of the Assiniboine Sioux Tribe of the Fort Peck Reservation. “I know that some of our country’s most skilled artisans are American Indi- ans and Alaska Natives. Under the Indian Arts and Crafts Act, it is illegal to sell any art or craft product in a manner that falsely suggests it is produced by Ameri- can Indians or Alaska Natives. Take home a treasure from Indian Country and please buy authentic Native American art and craftwork,” said Zinke. Harvey Pratt, chairman of the Inte- rior Department’s Indian Arts and Crafts Board and master Cheyenne-Arapaho artist, welcomed Secretary Zinke’s public service announcement. “The Indian Arts and Crafts Act is intended to protect Native American art- ists and artisans who rely heavily on the production and sale of traditional and contemporary art and craftwork to provide their economic livelihood, preserve their rich heritage and pass along their unique culture from generation to generation,” Pratt explained. The Indian Arts and Crafts Board pro- motes the production, sale and protection of authentic American Indian art and craftwork through its three museums and exhibi- tion programs, on-line source directory of authentic American art businesses, intellec- tual property rights protection and consumer education activities and active enforcement of the Indian Arts and Crafts Act.
