About the Southern Ute Cultural Center and Museum

Our mission is to foster understanding of and respect for the unique origin, culture, language, history, and way of life of the Núuchi (Ute People) and to advance people-to-people relations through inclusive and effective programming and services.

Our vision is to be a nationally-accredited, internationally-respected cultural center that serves as a model for all tribal museums, archives, and libraries.
