The Heard Museum is one of the finest Native American museums in this Country. One of the first things that I did when I arrived way back in 2000 was to attend the World Championship Hoop Dance Contest in February held each year. The first year I attended they had a youngster and a guy that was just a little bit older at I think 80 at the time, so it is fun for young and old.

In 2014 they are hosting the 56th annual Indian Fair & Market more than 600 of the nation’s finest American Indian artists.

They also have Sen. Barry Goldwater’s collection of Hopi Katsina dolls and Fred Harvey (Grand Canyon fame) collections. They also have changing exhibits, so please check them even if you have been there before.
