Land Acknowledgement

We would like to acknowledge and honor the Indigenous communities of this region, and recognize that the Museum is situated on the traditional homelands of the Southern Paiute Peoples. We offer gratitude for the land itself, for those who have stewarded it for generations, and for the opportunity to play, learn, discover, and be in community with this land.
