The city of Phoenix is applying for a grant from the Gila River Indian Community in hopes of funding a museum exhibit on Indian people.

The tribe created a fund using gaming revenues. The city wants to use $1 million for a permanent exhibit at the Heard Museum called "Home: Native Peoples of the Southwest." The exhibit will highlight traditional and modern Indian artists in the Southwest.
