Join us in celebration of dynamic Indigenous cultures. The Native American Cultural Festival features an array of live performances by acclaimed artists, cultural demonstrations, artmaking activities for the whole family, and educational experiences in the museum’s galleries.

🎟️ Registration
Although you can register for the festival when you arrive, we strongly suggest registering in advance of the festival. Pre-registered guests will enjoy priority check-in and a more convenient admission experience when they arrive.
🅿️ Parking
Our parking garage is located on Oak Street, on the west side of the museum. Parking is $14 per vehicle. Museum members park in the garage for free. Guests with disabilities who have an accessible placard also park for free (show the attendant your placard as you exit the garage). Limited free parking is available in the north lot (at 45th Street and Rockhill Road) and on nearby residential streets.
🚉 Transportation
The KC Streetcar route includes an Art Museum stop. Upon arrival, use the Arterie pathway that connects the streetcar stop to the Nelson-Atkins, guiding visitors past the Kansas City Art Institute and the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art.
