Discover how South Dakota's agricultural heritage shaped the lives, innovations, and communities that built the state. This museum showcases the crops, livestock, and technology that defined rural life across generations, while exploring the diverse cultures and traditions rooted in the land. Located on the South Dakota State University campus and open free to the public, it's a compelling look at the people and stories behind our agricultural past.

Planetarium audiences can now experience immersive high-tech adventures in a true 360 degree theater.

The North Dakota Museum of Art collects contemporary, international art in all media starting with the early 1970s (the founding of the Museum) onwards. It collects the visual history of the region. It is also assembling a survey collection of contemporary Native American art, starting with the early 1970s when the movement emerged. This does not preclude the acceptance of collections that are outside this focus if they would enrich the visual life of our audience, i.e. a historical textile collection.
