College Fund Jacquard Robe

Created exclusively for the American Indian College Fund, a nonprofit organization that helps fund scholarships for Native American students and tribal colleges. Your purchase of this USA-made blanket helps support their honorable mission.

This blanket's design pays tribute to the Indigenous person representing more than one tribe. An hourglass shape evokes the matriarchal society of the Navajo, a serape layout honors the Yaqui, and turquoise symbolizes the Pueblo of Laguna—the Many Nations of the artist, Dustin Lopez. Woven from pure virgin wool in our Pendleton, Oregon, mill.

About the artist:
Dustin Lopez (Diné/Laguna Pueblo/Pascua Yaqui) is based in Phoenix, Arizona. He works as a designer, muralist and educator, and attends Diné College. With a passion for creativity, Mr. Lopez aspires to be a role model on and off the reservation. "My dream is to use art and design as a driving force to reclaim our language, culture, and identities as 'mixbloods'. By combining modern and street art with contemporary art, I hope to inspire successfully between both worlds."
