This summer, there’s more than one way to experience Western Spirit Museum. From films and gallery tours to scavenger hunts and live artists, every visit offers something different to explore at your own pace.

Spend your Sundays with the West on screen. From classic Westerns to special film series connected to current exhibitions, the theater comes alive all summer long every Sunday at 3pm.

Choose from three scavenger hunts designed to help you explore the museum in new ways.

• Main Galleries Hunt — A closer look at art and objects throughout the museum
• New Exhibitions Hunt — Explore all four new galleries without missing a detail
• Hidden Treasures Hunt — Search for hidden miniature-sized Zuni carvings throughout the museum

Kids receive a prize upon completion.

Join a docent each day for stories, insights, and a deeper look at the exhibitions and collections. Included in general admission pass. No registration required.

Watch artists paint live in the galleries every Friday from 12–3 p.m. and see the creative process up close.

Summer is also a great time to take advantage of special access programs and offers:

• Blue Star Museums — Free admission for active-duty military families
• Culture Pass — Free admission through participating libraries Old Town
• Scottsdale Passport — Buy one, get one free admission offers

Now on view: four newly opened exhibitions in the Louis Sands IV Center, continuing to draw visitors from across the region. If you missed opening week, summer is the perfect time to experience the new galleries at your own pace.
