Agua Caliente Cultural Museum, Native American museum in Palm Springs, United States

The Agua Caliente Cultural Museum is a museum at 140 North Indian Canyon Drive in downtown Palm Springs, between Andreas Road and Tahquitz Canyon Way. It is sponsored by the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians and focuses on that tribe of the Coachella Valley. Its collections include the Florence Patencio Collection and off-site displays at the Spa Resort Casino Hotel Lobby, California State University San Bernardino's Palm Desert Campus and Palm Springs City Hall.

The site shows archaeological traces of people who lived here more than 8,000 years ago, with tools and objects found during excavations. These discoveries reveal the daily life and craft traditions of the early Cahuilla.

The galleries tell the creation story of the Cahuilla people, featuring the tale of twin brothers who crafted companions from Earth and the sky. This narrative runs through the entire visit and connects you to the spiritual roots of the region.

The museum is at 140 North Indian Canyon Drive in downtown Palm Springs, between Andreas Road and Tahquitz Canyon Way. SunLine Transit lines 111, 30 and 14 stop nearby. Administrative offices and a 1,200-volume reference library are housed separately at 901 East Tahquitz Canyon Way, Suite C-204.

The museum was the first Native American museum to join the Smithsonian Institution Affiliations Program. It also received a first-place award in the American Alliance of Museums 2010 Publications Design Competition for its 2009–2010 program brochure and announcement cards, designed by JCRR Design.
