tepee2WILLIAMS—After a long hiatas, the Turquoise Tepee—the oldest trading post in Williams—opened this month.

The Tepee is owned by a fourth generation of the Wheeler family. They opened in the late seventies moving to their present location.

The family purchases jewelery and other items directly from native American artists in the region. They can even give you a bio of the artists themselves.

While there, you should also check out the paintings on the wall which were painted by the late Drake Seaman; a popular local artist for many years.
