The 3 young ladies working there were amazing. They did attempt to find a guide service for us at the last minute but were unable to. The facility is very clean and we learned a lot.

Stopped by while they had an art exhibit on display. Some of the artwork was very well done and amazing. The place it not to big but definitely worth stopping by.
From The Heritage Center at Maȟpíya Lúta | Red Cloud
The Heritage Center, located on the Maȟpíya Lúta | Red Cloud campus in Pine Ridge, has become a model and source of inspiration for many of the Lakota people—and visitors from all across the globe—who wish to honor and celebrate the Lakota culture, Native art, and our historic, significant collection.
We are more than just a museum or art gallery. We are also an economic engine on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Through the Center’s renowned gift shop and online store, our local artists are empowered to increase their own economic self-sufficiency by making their incredible work available to a wider community.
