The Eiteljorg Museum is unique, one of the two museums east of the Mississippi, with both Native American and Western art. Located Downtown Indianapolis, the museum is within walking distance of the RCA Dome, Circle Center mall and major downtown hotels.
The building's distinctive design was inspired by the land, people and architecture of the American Southwest.
The American Western Gallery includes works from the Taos, N.M., Artists' Colony as well as peices from such legends as Remington and Russell.
Comtemporary artists who tell the story of today's West are also represented and the Native American collection includes pottery, basketry, sculpture and other artifacts from all 10 North American native cultural areas.
