All American Indian Days & the Miss Indian America Pageant

Viewable July 2 - December 23, 2026

 For more than 50 years, All American Indian Days (AAID) in Sheridan, Wyoming stood as one of the largest and most important intertribal gatherings in the United States. At the heart of this annual celebration was the Miss Indian America Pageant, which crowned 29 remarkable young Native women as ambassadors of beauty, intelligence, talent, and cultural pride.


This exhibit proudly displays all 29 official portraits of the Miss Indian America titleholders. Each woman’s story represents a unique chapter in Native American history and resilience.

Transitions of the Landscape Exhibit

Viewable until June 28, 2026

 The Transition of the Landscape exhibit presents a selection of Jessamine Spear Johnson photographs from the 1926 events of the 50th Anniversary of the Battle of the Little Big Horn. This exhibit explores significant anniversary events of our nation and region, while offering the opportunity to share Jessamine’s view as a resident of the Bighorn Mountain region. The anniversary events included speeches, parades, and Crow Rodeo.  2026 commemorates the 150th Anniversary of the battle. 


 The Jessamine Spear Johnson photographs and materials are generously on temporary loan from the X4, LLC. © 2025, X4, LLC, Mt
