The Arizona State Museum houses a collection of nearly 300 ceramic canteens made across space and time in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico by Indigenous artists and their ancestors. This exhibit is an expanded and edited version of a 2016 project by University of Arizona student intern Sarah Blomstrand, and highlights the diversity represented within the collection.
