The National Buffalo Museum is growing, and this project supports that growth. In the past, our museum \u2013 like many small museums \u2013 did not have the capacity to undertake this type of collections project and we just did the best we could with what we had. It is exciting to see that as we grow, we are able to make proper stewardship of our collection a priority.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The National Buffalo Museum\u2019s mission is to advocate for the restoration of the North American bison through education and outreach. The Museum opened in 1993 to address the need for a facility to house and display accumulated bison-related artifacts, artwork, and historical memorabilia. The Museum is home to the Buffalo Hall of Fame, where visitors learn about the individuals who have had significant impacts on conservation and restoration of the US National Mammal.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact Ilana Xinos at 701-252-8648 or <a href=\"mailto:director@buffalomuseum.com\">director@buffalomuseum.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Update&#8230; Jamestown\u00a0 (National Buffalo Museum)\u00a0 \u2013 The National Buffalo Museum has been awarded a Cultural Heritage Grant from the State Historical Society of North Dakota for $36,000 to inventory, evaluate, and care for the museum\u2019s collection.
