The Plains Indian Museum tells the significant story of the lives of Plains Indian peoples, their cultures, traditions, values, and histories. We are governed by an advisory board comprised of tribal members from various backgrounds.
The Plains Indian Museum at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West houses over 10,000 objects from indigenous people of the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies. The Plains Indian Museum Facebook page is a way to keep up with the Plains Indian Museum and engage with collections, staff, and the everyday lives of Indian Country.
The Mission of the Plains Indian Museum is to educate and advance knowledge about living American Indian cultures, their histories, art, spirituality, and traditions for current and future generations. To achieve this goal, the Plains Indian Museum will diligently seek to acquire, preserve, conserve, exhibit and interpret cultural materials from the prehistoric past to the present. It is the Museum's belief that the past is best used when it serves the present and future.
