I have been to museums all around the world and this is one i think about often. Maybe it's because I have generational history in the Ozarks, maybe it's because I went in with low expectations, or maybe it's just a great museum. We went in to kill some time and it was free with some other attractions we had planned. Pleasantly surprised by the amount of artifacts, quality and the beautiful displays. I'll go back here and I talk about it all the time to people.

It was very neat! Lots of collections. In fact I’ve never seen that many clothing collections of Native Americans. Beautiful bead work and stories behind them all. Very nice to walk thru after a meal at Arnies Barn.
