Montrose, CO - Ute Indian Museum
The only History Colorado museum on the Western Slope, the Ute Indian Museum offers one of the most complete collections of Ute artifacts in the United States. Dioramas, changing exhibits, and engaging programs bring history and culture of past, present and future generations together for all to learn about and enjoy.
The museum grounds include the Ouray Memorial Park, teepees, picnic areas, and the gravesite of Chief Ouray’s wife Chipeta, a native plants garden, an outdoor display of the Dominquez-Escalante Expedition of 1776, a pier out to the Uncompahgre River, and a museum store that features Ute pottery, silver, jewelry, books, and other handcrafted Indian artwork.
A multi-million dollar expansion is currently happening at the museum with an anticipated grand opening in June of 2017. Visit the temporary location at the Montrose Visitor Center located at 107 S Cascade Ave.

**State Honor Award - Ute Indian Museum**
Nestled in the heart of traditional Ute territory, the Ute Indian Museum in Montrose, Colorado, is History Colorado’s only facility in western Colorado. The Museum was built in 1956 on the original lands of Uncompahgre leader Chief Ouray and his wife Chipeta. The Ute Indian Museum celebrates the history and the living culture of Colorado’s longest continuous residents and features one of the most extensive collections of Ute ethnographic objects in existence.
The State of Colorado appropriated $2.9 million to renovate the Ute Indian Museum building. The expanded Museum makes connections between past and contemporary Ute life and culture and the Ute peoples’ history of adaptation and persistence. After several years of collaboration between History Colorado and the Southern Ute Indian Tribe, Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe on planning, construction, exhibit design, and fundraising the museum re-opened to the public on June 10, 2017.
