Native American National and State Scenic Byway
Miles: 460 (total SD portion) | 180 (as presented here) Midway between Eagle Butte and Chamberlain
DIGNITY: OF EARTH & SKY
Chamberlain
Chamberlain’s 50-foot-tall sculpture of a Native woman casts her gaze across the prairie farmland. By day, note how the sun and wind play with the colored shapes of her star quilt; by night, watch as LED lights cause those shapes to glow.
AKTÁ LAKOTA MUSEUM & CULTURAL CENTER
Chamberlain
“To honor the [Lakota] people,” as its name implies, fully explore this Chamberlain site. A 36- foot diorama depicting prairie life, a traditional medicine wheel garden, and contemporary art combine to create a robust picture of the Lakota.
H.V. JOHNSTON LAKOTA CULTURAL CENTER
Eagle Butte
At this museum, view Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe artifacts, murals, photographs, beadwork and paintings. You also can purchase authentic, locally made artwork in the center’s gift shop.
