The museum, open to the public since 1932, houses over 8,000 objects representing 120 American Indian cultures from California, the Southwest and the Great Basin. The Antelope Valley was an important trade crossroads for these three regions.
The exhibits also reveal how the depiction of American Indian cultures has changed over the last 80 years.
The Storybook/Tudor Revival style building incorporates a rocky butte into the décor. In addition to exhibits, enjoy the nature trail, gift shop, and picnic area. Guided programs are available by reservation.
