the Oak Creek Overlook Vista. The Oak Creek Overlook Vista is open daily from 8 AM to 5 PM during the Summer and 8 AM to 4 PM during the Winter. Daily, there are 16 Native American Vendors and Artists who showcase and sell their authentic and beautiful arts and crafts. These carefully crafted items include jewelry, ornaments, pottery, sculptures and much more. In 1988, a Memorandum of Agreement was signed by the U.S. Forest Service and NACA, thus establishing a Native American arts and crafts vending project located at the scenic Oak Creek Vista Overlook. This site is atop the switchbacks of Oak Creek Canyon. This program creates a unique opportunity for Native Americans to enhance and develop their economic self-sufficiency. Above all, families involved with the project have gained economic empowerment and pride in themselves. Native Americans for Community Action, Inc. works in partnership with the Coconino National Forest to oversee vendors at Oak Creek Vista to provide high quality authentic Native American crafts. Public restrooms are available. Tour buses are welcome! The Oak Creek Overlook Vista is visited by hundreds of people daily. Please visit the Overlook Vista today to enjoy the beautiful scenery and the authentic Native American arts and crafts.
