about us West African hair cut poster Nomad: Shop with an adventurous heart Established in Cambridge in 1990, NOMAD is a world-class boutique offering an array of hand-selected international arts and crafts for personal adornment and home decor. Owner/Maven/Pioneer, Deb Colburn has united her extensive artistic background - textile arts, spinning, weaving, basket making and knitting - with her love of world travel. The result is a treasure trove of unique handicrafts from Africa, Afghanistan, India, Mexico, South America and Southeast Asia - bursting with color and artfully displayed throughout the store. We buy many of our items direct from the artisan, keeping cultural traditions alive. NOMAD is a firm believer in "fair trade" and a buyer from many Aid to Artisan groups world-wide. We also host visits from the artists, giving our customers the rare opportunity to learn from the masters first-hand. For those of you seeking the full NOMAD experience, we offer Art & Soul tours to Mexico and India. Let NOMAD take you on an incredible journey of art and culture. Our knowledgeable and friendly staff are here to guide you along! |
