Museum of Native American History

The Museum of Native American History's mission is to educate future generations about the lives of the First Americans. In addition, the museum provides a cultural hub to amplify the voices of their legacy. 

The Museum of Native American History was first established in a downtown location in 2006 as the Museum of Native American Artifacts. The collection quickly outgrew the space, and MONAH opened its current doors in June of 2008. A registered member of the Cherokee Nation, David Bogle, born and raised in Bentonville, founded the museum that houses over 10,000 of the finest Native American artifacts. The museum features Bogle's private collection and several collections donated and on loan to the museum for display. Admission to the museum is free. We are committed to offering free and low-cost events. The museum is open 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday - Saturday.
