The artists who are guild members of SRTAG have been vetted and represent themselves from an Official State-Recognized Tribe. As describe in the law below, “Indian is defined as a member of a federally or officially state recognized tribe of the United States, or a certified Indian Artisan.” All artists in this guild fall under this definition and therefore are backed by the Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990.
