POI 1 Tour Image
Heard Museum
On your left is the Heard Museum, a Phoenix landmark since 1929 and one of the world’s premier centers for Native American art and culture. The Heard showcases everything from centuries-old pottery and jewelry to vibrant contemporary works by Native artists today.

A highlight is the exhibit Away From Home, which tells the powerful story of Native children who were forced into government-run boarding schools — an important part of history that’s not often told. Beyond the galleries, the Heard is alive with cultural festivals, storytelling, and its celebrated Indian Fair & Market, which draws artists and visitors from around the country. With its mix of art, history, and living culture, the Heard is the perfect place to begin exploring Phoenix.

Since opening in 1959, it has become a cultural anchor for the city, with a collection of more than 20,000 works of art. Inside you’d find everything from classic European paintings to modern American masterpieces, plus striking Latin American and Asian art.

The museum is also known for its dynamic photography shows, fashion exhibitions, and bold contemporary installations that push the boundaries of creativity. Families love the interactive spaces, and the museum frequently hosts film screenings, performances, and lectures, making it a true hub of culture.

Whether you’re an art aficionado or just curious, the Phoenix Art Museum offers something inspiring for everyone.
