WELCOME TO TERRY AND PAM PICKARD's APACHE ART COMPANY'S 11th YEAR IN OPERATION!

This company evolved to work with teachers, museums, public and private groups to educate this side of the world on the rich culture of the Native American Indian. APACHE ART CO. is the ONLY NATIVE-OWNED business in the UK teaching on this subject, APACHE ART CO. has taught thousands of children and adults in the ways of the Native American Indian. I've appeared at every major museum in the UK with great success in accomplishing what I started out wanting to do, and that is to try and dispell myths and stereotypes, and display a little Indian-Humour. I've always made it clear to everyone, that I only speak for myself and don't claim to speak for a whole tribe or group, as one person can not do that.

****NEW FOR 2008****

--NEW PHOTOS!--I've added all new photographs in the PICTURES section of this web site, so please take the time and see for youself an example of APACHE ART CO.'s Cultural Presentations, Workshops and Background.

--MORE CLOTHING & REGALIA TO TRY ON!-- More Apache clothing has been donated by family members, including ribbon shirts, jingle dresses, Apache buckskin dress and Apache Camp dress, boot moccassins, musical instruments and other various dance costumes from other tribes all over the U.S. and Canada.

CULTURAL PRESENTATIONS FOR SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, MUSEUMS, FESTIVALS ETC.!

These are VERY popular with the British audiences and designed for all ages and abilities in schools, colleges, museums, fairs, festivals, public and private groups. Include Traditional Storytelling, Artefact Handling, Models, Music, Games, Spiritual & Traditional Medicine. Topics include History, Culture, Home life, Clothing, Dwellings, Religion, Food, Weapons & Warriors and the hands-on use of traditional tools of all American Indian tribal cultures and how they relate and differ from one another. These Presentations are Hands-On & Interactive, and designed to teach the students to Listen to Instruction, Hand & Eye coordination, Working Together Safely and Using Common Sense. This year I've made several new toys and games along with other models of dwellings from tribes throughout America to see how they compare to modern day examples, also new articles from the Plains tribes. Each school booking will receive a free Teachers Resource Pack pertaining to their age group, full of info., ideas, class projects, stories, etc. to prepare for the day and afterwards. Students are encouraged to dress up for the day and bring their cameras!
