Western Heritage Center

The Western Heritage Center is a regional museum whose collections, exhibits, and programs share the story of the Yellowstone River Valley.

The Western Heritage Center, in order to promote an appreciation of history and culture, tells the stories of the Northern High Plains centered on the Yellowstone River Valley. We do this by implementing comprehensive arts and humanities projects, programs and exhibits based on broad regional interest and need.
