  • An act of Congress in 1989 launched this institution, which then opened in 2004.
  • This museum was designed to preserve, study, and exhibit the languages, life, history, literature, and arts of Native Americans
  • Donna House, the Navajo and Oneida botanist who supervised the landscaping, has said, "The landscape flows into the building, and the environment is who we are. We are the trees, we are the rocks, we are the water. And that had to be part of the museum"
