Wheelwright Museum of the American Indian

A museum designed to look like a Navajo hogan, showing contemporary and traditional Native art.

Founded in 1937 by Mary Cabot Wheelwright and a Navajo medicine man, the museum is located on Museum Hill. Its main galleries rotate works by Native artists. The downstairs “Lattice Tent Trading Post” recreates an early 20th-century trading post and sells silver jewelry and rugs. Tickets cost about $10. It is a small museum and can be seen in under an hour.
