She went on to do Masters Degrees in Anthropology at the University of Minnesota and Museum Studies at the University of Washington, and continued research on traditional textiles of Kutch for over 30 years.

An Afternoon with Christie Purifoy! Sunday, February 1st, 2026
Let's celebrate the release of Christie Purifoy's new book, A House to Call Home!

"Inspired by the life of the particular house she knows best, Christie Purifoy offers reflections and practical suggestions for anyone who longs to create a place for rest and healing, for wonder and welcome."
