Visit the Joshua Tree Outdoor Museum. 

It is crucial to acknowledge the ancestral, cultural, and unseated territory of the Serrano people. Historically, these indigenous people thrived in the San Bernardino Mountains and the southern Mojave Desert of California. The Noah Purifoy Outdoor Museum of Assemblage Art, a testament to human creativity is situated in the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians area, known by its traditional name Yuhaviatem (yu-hay-vee-a-tam) or “People of the Pines”. We deeply respect and honor their elders and celebrate their current vitality and that of their future generations.

The days are getting longer and temps are trying to warm. It’s a great time to plan a visit to the Outdoor Museum!

 

**Please be aware that Google Maps is giving faulty directions to the Outdoor Museum. Do not turn north onto to Desert Acres Road. Many cars and trucks have gotten stuck in the soft sand and have had to get towed out. Instead proceed east on Aberdeen to Center Avenue and follow the signs to the Museum.
