International Museum of Cultures

Our mission is to be a window on indigenous people of the world and to create greater appreciation for ethnic and cultural diversity, thereby furthering mutual respect and peace between peoples. The International Museum of Cultures (IMC) is a unique cultural anthropology museum, located in Southwest Dallas, that features contemporary peoples from around the world. Our gallery exhibits include interactive videos from Africa, Southeast Asia, Papua New Guinea, China, Mexico and Native America, in addition to a drum exhibit accompanied by video programming. The Museum is situated in a wooded, scenic area on the campus of the International Linguistics Center. Authentic homes are located on the museum grounds from the Lakota Sioux Native Americans and Papua New Guinea.
