Museums in Phoenix

Phoenix has many interesting museums, but there are a few major museums that visitors should know about before planning their trip to Arizona.

The most special, the "must-see" museum for any visitor to the area is the Heard Museum. Founded in 1929 by Dwight Heard, it is dedicated to preserving the expansive collection of Southwest Native American arts and crafts that he and his wife had collected during their lifetimes. The museum houses more than 30,000 works, but the most popular attraction is its collection of 500 Native American dolls. The museum also has an impressive collection of contemporary art by local Native Americans.
