The institute chronicles tribal heritage and the impact of Western migration from the Native American perspective.
Pendleton has a LOT of high quality cultural attractions, and ideally visitors should stay for a couple days and do them all, but if you only have time for one, this is where I’d send you. The addition of interpretive information about contemporary Native culture sets it apart from most museums, and you’ll leave with a good understanding of Plateau culture. Plan 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

The Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks and Minerals houses a world-class collection recognized as the finest in the Pacific Northwest and one of the best in the nation. Located just west of Portland, Oregon, in Hillsboro, the Museum showcases not only fine rocks and minerals, but also fossils, meteorites, lapidary art, and gemstones from both the Pacific Northwest and all around the world.
There is no way to describe this place in a way that would make it sound as truly amazing as it is. The place is room after room of wonder and your imagination can not help but go into overdrive. I highly recommend this for all ages.
