Have a limited amount of time to tour but want to see the “good stuff”? This hour-long Signature Tour gleans the surface of the Museum’s many permanent collections. From Albert Bierstadt’s glowing landscape, Emigrants Crossing the Plains, and works by Remington and Russell, to Native American art, see some of the finest Western art in the country. View ethnographic material from Native Americans to mountain men and learn about frontier military life. Round out the tour with a look at the evolution of the working cowboy to their portrayal in film and pop culture. Walk away with a better understanding of the diverse cultures that shaped the West, but be sure to leave time to check out The Museum Store.
