• Arty Girl: Shopping at the Heard Museum

  By Lilia MenconiSee more ornaments like this at Heard Museum North Scottsdale.It's black Friday. How could I blog about anything else but shopping? Now, I'm not the type to hit a mall on a day like today. Or most days, for that matter.But I do love to shop. And I have to say that there's nothing like a museum gift shop. Every time I go to a museum, I can't resist poking around; checking out their original jewelry, housewares and little artsy trinkets. Which is how I stumbled upon Ugly Dolls. And

• Arty Girl: Will Wilson and Steven Yazzie at the Heard Museum

  "The Sitting Room" by Steven Yazzie.I have a feeling this Friday night is going to be one of those nights where I'm so overwhelmed with art options, I become socially paralyzed and don't know what to do with myself.Already, we've got Third Friday art walk and the ASU Kurt Weiser opening, but I'll just take the liberty of adding another event to the list.From 7-9 p.m. this Friday, Will Wilson and Steven Yazzie will hold an informal reception for their joint show, "New Works" in the Berlin Gallery

• Arty Girl: Let's Talk About...at the Heard Museum North

  If you're a native Phoenician, you may see the Heard museum's permanent collection as a total snooz-fest. Thank the public school curriculum for drilling us with annual field trips to the Heard during elementary school for that. You can only mash corn in a stone bowl so many times until it becomes a little mundane.But, we're all grown up now and it may be time to revisit what the Heard has to offer. Tomorrow, if you can afford the drive or happen to live in the North Valley, you can have a whole

• Heard Museum West Will Close By the End of 2009

  www.heard.org​Citing the recession and financial hardships, officials for the Heard Museum West location in Surprise announced today that the museum will close by the end of the year. Like the other Heard Museum locations in Phoenix and Scottsdale, the Heard Museum West housed Native American exhibits and artifacts. It opened in 2006, but officials say the revenue to sustain the 7,000-square-foot facility just isn't there. The museum expects to lose about $80,000 for the current fiscal year. T

• Arty Girl: New Exhibit at the Heard Museum North Opens

  Red Top II by Norman Akers.​I live in a small apartment fourplex that was built in 1927. Sometimes when my mind wanders, I imagine what has happened within these walls. What kind of people lived here? How many times has someone gotten freaky here? And has anyone ever died?Then I start to get a little creeped out and I have to stop.I naturally think this way about old buildings but I forget to ask such questions about the actual land the building sits on. How very Western of me.The Heard Museum
