The 45th Annual Red Cloud Indian Art Show is the largest and longest running Native American art show of its kind in the country. Since 1969, the Red Cloud Indian Art Show has attracted tens of thousands of visitors to The Heritage Center to view works by seasoned and emerging Lakota and other Native artists.
