Native American Jemez Made Clown Storytellers

Description

Native American Jemez Made Clown Storytellers by Felicia Fraqua

These wonderful, sweet, small Jemez clowns were handmade by Felicia Fragua from the Jemez Pueblo. The storyteller is an adaptation of centuries-old creations in figurine pottery. Cultural traditions and values have historically been passed on by tribal elders through songs and stories geared to teaching the young. It is in these delightful representations that the intense love of the Native American Indians for their children is most clearly shown.
