"The Photos J.K. Moore"

June 30 to September 30, 2021

View images taken by James K. Moore and his son, James K. Moore, Jr., showing life on the Wind River Indian Reservation and at nearby Fort Washakie in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. 

In the late 1800s, Moore Sr. served as both the Indian trader and the post trader for these two sites that are located near present-day Riverton, Wyoming.

This exhibit is on loan from the American Heritage Center in Laramie, Wyoming.

There are also two pop-up exhibits on view.

Learn about the Wind River Reservation with "Two Nations, One Reservation" and women's suffrage with "Rightfully Hers."
