Become a Featured Artist

We are always looking to showcase native artists and as of 2024, we’ve started a new area of the museum where we will be featuring artists from across the country! This is a rotating exhibit that displays an “About The Artist” section with a biography so visitors can learn about you. We will help design several signs that feature images of your work and elaboration about the pieces seen. There will also be a space to display actual pieces either for sale in the gift shop or as temporary exhibit pieces. When filling out the contact form, please include which nation your heritage lies as well as the type of work you do.

Participate in a Education Project

We work with educational groups of all ages. Whether Scouts, classrooms, homeschool groups, or adult education…we’ve got something for everyone. We can work with you to create a project for your students or design a talk around an area of current study. From local history and medicinal plants to native pollinators and native weaponry, let us help spark the interest of your students! Partner with the museum to design or showcase a Native American research project. Use the contact form below to reach out and explain your vision!

Teach a Class

We’re looking for charismatic people passionate about sharing their knowledge! Whether sharing as aspect of your indigenous culture like making baskets, explaining regalia, or doing weapons demonstrations, we’d love to give visitors the opportunity to hear you share! We also accept topics relating to the natural world around us. Message us today about scheduling your potential class to be held in our newly remodeled Natural History Center.

Study Our Photo Collection of Chiricahua Apache 

The museum houses the most comprehensive collection of photographs currently available on Geronimo’s people, the Chiricahua Apache.  Donated in the 1980’s, the collection includes approximately 900 photographs cross referenced with names of individuals and notations on sites.   Private researchers, including doctoral students and authors have studied the collection as well as writers from National Geographic magazine, Smithsonian, and National Public Television.  You can use the form at the bottom of the page to make arrangements on access to the collection.

If you like working outdoors, projects outdoors like helping with landscaping, trail cleaning, and working with native plants are always in need of an attentive eye. Enjoy working with your hands? We’ve usually got times where an extra set of hands to help with some heavy lifting, exhibit cleaning, assistance with exhibit construction would be welcomed! Love attention to detail?
