White Bear Hopi Arts was established in 1972 by the late Oswald Qo-tsa-honow (White Bear) Fredericks, a noted artist and co-author with Frank Waters of the "Book of The Hopi".
His mission was to present to the larger public the art of the Hopi people. That mission is still carried on today by family members who are artists in their own right. John Fredericks, his son Thomas Fredericks, as well as John's sister Evelyn Fredericks manage the gallery purchasing pottery, Kachina carvings, sculpture and other Hopi crafts. All are obtained directly from local Hopi artisans. Family art is also offered here. John and Thomas are noted Kachina carvers while Evelyn works in stone and limited edition bronze sculptures.
Special commissions for carving and other works by John, Thomas and Evelyn, are welcome.
