  • We were privileged to have the guide, Cozette Mathew’s, share her wealth of knowledge with us on our tour. We look forward to many more return visits.

  • This museum is an absolute beautiful addition to our city. Learn about the historical Southwest while touring this beautiful property for 2-3 hours. Experience and learn about the American Indian heritage with all its history .The silver and weaving exhibits, art work, garden sculptures and architecture of the property are outstanding as well as special exhibits . A great day for the out of town visitor and locals alike. Beautiful for all ages. Parking is easy and staff is kind and welcoming .
  • The Heard Museum is a well done museum that you should visit at least once. The museum is well designed, the exhibits are laid out in a manner that allows for easy viewing. The exhibit spaces and grounds are well kept and look spectacular. There is a large collection of artwork, jewelry, and other artifacts that speak to the history of Native Americans. The Indian school exhibit details the history, both good and bad, of boarding schools for native children. It is an interesting and educational look at the history of our country.
