An interesting museum that captures the Native American culture and art. I suggest you start with the film and then as you stroll around the museum the guides will show you various artifacts. Want to try something different for lunch? Make sure you stop by the cafeteria to try some delicious buffalo meat and other wonderful Native American foods. The gift store is also full of interesting things that both adults and children will enjoy
