Museu do Índio

Museu do Índio, Indigenous cultural museum in Embu das Artes, Brazil.

The Museu do Índio is a private museum in Embu das Artes, in the state of São Paulo, run by the Centro de Informação da Cultura Indígena. It holds an ethnographic and ethnological collection of more than five hundred pieces and keeps a cultural programme on Brazil's indigenous peoples. It was founded in 2005 by the artist, writer and researcher Walde-Mar de Andrade e Silva.

The Museu do Índio was founded in 2005 by Walde-Mar de Andrade e Silva, a visual artist, writer and researcher, as a private institution linked to the Centro de Informação da Cultura Indígena. Its ethnographic and ethnological collection of more than five hundred pieces is kept, researched and shown to the public by that centre, which also runs cultural programming on Brazil's indigenous peoples.

The collection represents work from different indigenous groups, each with their own artistic traditions and handcraft techniques visible in the objects on display. Visitors can observe how these styles vary and understand the role such pieces played in daily community life.

The museum is a private institution run with the Centro de Informação da Cultura Indígena, so opening depends on the centre's programme rather than fixed municipal hours; confirm before travelling. It sits in Embu das Artes, in Greater São Paulo, and the collection of over five hundred ethnographic and ethnological pieces is shown alongside cultural programming on Brazil's indigenous peoples.
