The primary objective of the National Multicultural Western Heritage Museum and Hall of Fame is to offer the visitor a true and complete historical perspective of the people and activities that built the unique culture of the American West. The work of artists who documented the people and events of the time through journals photographs and other historical items are part of this new collection. These long overlooked materials tell perhaps for the first time the complete story. The American West of today still operates on many of the principles and cutural relationships begun so long ago
The National Multicultural Western Heritage Hall of Fame was founded to give recognition to the outstanding pioneers who played a role in settling the early American western frontier. The National Multicultural Western Heritage Museum and Hall of Fame also acknowledges individuals that have contributed to the western culture and tradition and play a part in keeping this important piece of American History alive. The National Multicultural Western Heritage Museum is currently located at 3400 Mount Vernon Ave. There are several featured exhibits such as the Tuskgee Airmen and the Buffalo Soldiers . The future holds promise for the Museum and a Capital Campaign is underway to secure funding for the renovation of a new location. The new location along with providing more square footage for exhibits also sits in a high traffic area on Interstate 287.
The National Multicultural Western Heritage Museum was started to acknowledge the contributions of Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, European Americans, and African Americans in the settlement of the Western American Frontier
