Since 1929, when Museum co-founder Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton inaugurated the Arizona Artists Arts and Crafts Exhibitions, the Museum of Northern Arizona has been a leader in the arts in Arizona. As a respected artist and a national leader in arts education, Colton clearly and passionately understood the value of the arts and arts education. Over the years, MNA has presented and assembled a significant collection that depicts the people, places and traditions of the Colorado Plateau. Today, the Museum continues to present innovative exhibitions including the first career retrospectives of Joella Jean Mahoney, Merrill Mahaffey and Bruce Aiken.
