Buffalo Thunder Casino

I was curious if Native American art was displayed at the numerous Native owned and operated casinos. I found a website displaying the art that is at the Buffalo Thunder Casino in New Mexico.

Here are some examples of art displayed there

The ten foot tall "Deer Dancer" statue at the Buffalo Thunder Resort
“Deer Dancer” sculpture by George Rivera of the Pojoaque Pueblo

 Native American art on the second floor of the Buffalo Thunder Casino
Various paintings as well as a sculpture of Koshares, the "clowns" that brought people to the Earth.

Here is a link to the website

    nice art....is this an example of the tribe using casino generated revenues to support Native arts? do you think the Casino patrons also come for this aspect of the experience?
