Heard Museum

Picture
​The mission of the Heard Museum is to educate people about the arts, heritage and life ways of the Indigenous peoples of the Americas, with an emphasis on American Indian tribes of the Southwest.

Since its founding by Dwight and Maie Heard in 1929, the Heard Museum has grown in size and stature to become recognized internationally for the quality of its collections, its educational programming and its festivals. Dedicated to the sensitive and accurate portrayal of Native arts and cultures, the Heard is an institution that successfully combines the stories of American Indian people from a personal perspective with the beauty of art.

Through innovative programs, world-class exhibitions and unmatched festivals, the Heard Museum sets the standard nationally for collaborating with Native people to present first-person voices. Partnerships with American Indian artists and tribal communities provide visitors with a distinctive perspective about the art and cultures of Native people, especially those from the Southwest.

The Heard Museum enchants visitors from around the world with the art, culture and history of our Native neighbors and other cultures of the Southwest. With 12 exhibit galleries, an education center, a shop featuring genuine American Indian art, a boutique bookstore, indoor and outdoor dining, the Heard Museum is a place of learning, discovery and unforgettable experiences.
