Southern Ute Cultural Center and Museum

The Southern Ute Cultural Center and Museum displays over 1500 artifacts, including traditional clothing, tools, photographs, and multimedia presentations about Ute life.

The museum, established in 2011, stands on ancestral lands of the Southern Ute Tribe, who have maintained continuous residence in Colorado longer than any other group.

The museum preserves living traditions through recorded stories from community members, multimedia exhibitions, and displays of traditional ceremonial objects and daily life items.

Located at 503 Ouray Drive, the museum opens daily from 10 AM to 5 PM with admission fees of $8 for adults and $2 for children aged 3-17.

The 52,000-square-foot building incorporates Native American design elements, including a central conic structure and a Circle of Life glass ceiling above ponderosa pine logs.
