Today, on the first day of Native American Heritage Month, we’re visiting the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) in Washington, DC. It"s part of the large network of the Smithsonian Institution, and has branches in New York and Maryland. Together, the three museums share one of the world"s largest collections of Western Hemisphere Native artifacts, "from the Arctic Circle to Tierra del Fuego."
