Janice and Joseph Day will give you tips on where to go and what to see (inside the reservation and out) to make your visit truly enjoyable. Their selection of kachina dolls rivals anything you'll see in Scottsdale or Santa Fe and their prices make the detour well worth the effort. Joseph's genuine interest in archaeology and Native American culture along with Janice's friendliness and sense of humor make a stop at Tsakurshovi a must.

Joseph and Janice are the real deal, and more interested in ensuring that your experience is enjoyable and authentic than in making a sale... two of the finest people I know. A must stop.

Nathan LeGrand wrote on January 11, 2011: It's TRUE - read all the posted comments and know that it's all true. Janice and Joseph Day create a unique experience for everyone. Whether you are looking for guidance and/or information - current or historical - for the Hopi, information and/or direction for the entire 4-corner area, or looking for authentic art and craft, Tsakurshovi is the place to go. When I traveled to the region in the past, I would always make a point to stop and visit Janice and Joseph, buy art and see what was happening. Now, Tsakurshove is my main purpose of going to the region. SPECIAL TREAT: sometimes something extraordinary awaits you. On one of my recent visits (June/2010) I had a unique opportunity to see and witness part of the seasonal planting of corn in the field that Janice's family has tended for generations. Dry Farming is an art and daily tradition unto itself. The lineage of the corn they plant dates back at least 4000 Years. It was truly a fascinating experience.

Linda Martin wrote on January 08, 2011: Tsakurshovi is a delightful place to stop on the Hopi mesas. It reminds me of those oldtime trading posts that are fast disappearing from the Southwest. Janice and Joseph Day, the proprietors, always have a friendly word and the best information that you'll find in the area. They stock authentic arts and crafts at affordable prices. If you want to know about new and upcoming artists, just spend a little time at Tsakurshovi. You'll see as many local Hopi people saunter into the shop as tourists who happen by. I tell anyone who plans a trip to Hopi to stop at Tsakurshovi for tips on how to behave at dances and what's happening at the different villages. Janice and Joseph will make sure you leave Hopi with a smile on your face!

Joe told me about and sold me the book "In Seach of the Old Ones". Can't thank you enough, Joe. If I had read that book as a young man, I probably would have become an archaeologist instead of ecologist. See you soon Joe, I want to come back at equinox or solstice.

The ambiance of the shop is truly reminiscent of an early trading post. It is one of the few places on Hopi where a visitor can obtain informed information about the local events and culture. You are likely to meet anyone at Tskurshovi including Hopi carvers, basket makers, artists, anthropologists, film makers and authors. It is truly at a crossroads of southwestern cultural exchange. Janice welcomes you to the shop with her warm presence and her willingness to share her knowledge with all. Joseph is something amazing to behold as he pulls out his maps, markers, and brochures and plots a magical route filled with beautiful scenery including the "fastest" way to explore sites off the beaten path. Visiting Tsakurshovi is a completely satisfying experience!

That's the Days who operate the best source of authentic material on Hopiland. Plus, they'll tell you what's happening on the rez, and how to behave so you don't look like a newbie. Plus, the two of them are the funniest people around; even better that those expensive comedy clubs in L.A.

Judy and Phillip Tuwaletstiwa wrote on January 05, 2011: Tsakurshovi is first place one should stop when visiting the Hopi Reservation! Joe will tell you what is happening, where to go, and how to behave. Joe, informative, humorous and wonderfully opinionated, is perfectly balanced by his beautiful, sensitive, soft-spoken wife, Janice. Their small shop contains a very large world of Hopi art. Authentic Kachina Dolls line the walls, hand woven baskets and plaques hang from the ceiling, Hopi silver jewelry and ceramics fill the cases. The world famous "Don't worry, be Hopi" t-shirts, designed by Joe and Janice, sit in bright piles on shelves. Do not miss this experience. Even if you enter the shop travel weary, you will leave it with your spirits lifted.
