Tsuu T'ina Culture Museum

Come experience the truly genuine artifacts, photographs, and living culture within the Tsuut’ina Culture Museum. In 1977, the Canadian government mandated that First Nations culture be revived.

Come enjoy the new museum building located on the beautiful Tsuut’ina Nation where you will be able to learn about the rich cultural history. You can appreciate the mountain view while observing Chief Bullhead’s original homestead built in 1902, which is located beside the museum.
