Amerind Foundation Museum

Dragoon, Arizona

Archaeology, Art, Culture, Historic House, Library

Amerind Museum exhibitions tell the story of America's first peoples from Alaska to South America and from the last Ice Age to the present. Amerind's Fulton-Hayden Memorial Art Gallery features works on western themes by such artists as Harrison Begay, Carl Oscar Borg, William Leigh, Frederic Remington, and Andy Tsihnahjinnie. The museum store offers southwestern arts, crafts, and books on prehistory, history, and Native American cultures. The museum and art gallery are housed in Spanish Colonial Revival style buildings designed by noted Tucson architect Merritt Starkweather.
The Amerind experience is more than art and artifacts. On Native Arts weekends, Amerind visitors will find Indian artists demonstrating their skills in the museum's main gallery.
