Museum dedicated to educating and preserving American Indian culture and art. We have created our Tell Me A Story studio, where we will record our elders sharing their stories. Our goal is to build on the knowledge visitors already have about American Indians, challenge stereotypes and connect them to both the past and the present. We often address the difficulties experienced by many Native peopl

e. Indian history is not always pleasant to hear, but the stories need to be told so we can all reach a place of understanding.

Congrats!

If bison are on the road, be patient, drive slowly, and stay in your vehicle. Wait for bison to move along: do not honk your horn or drive aggressively toward them. That will only make them go slower. A bison’s level of aggressiveness, both physical and passive, is legendary.
