Pipestone National Monument is proud to highlight the work of Indigenous artists by hosting an Artist-in-Residence program again this summer! Artists will display and demonstrate their particular style of art for one week, while engaging with and educating visitors from all over the world.
Pipestone National Monument’s Visitor Center will be open Tuesday through Saturday from 8:30am - 4:30pm in the months of December, January, and February. The Visitor Center will be closed on Sundays and Mondays.
The Visitor Center will also be closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day.
Join us on September 28th for the final Star Party of the year at Pipestone National Monument. From 8:30 pm to 10:00 pm, gaze through telescopes with fellow astronomers and learn about the wonders of the cosmos. Photography enthusiasts can also get hands-on experience with astrophotography, guided by photographer Marty DeWitt (just be sure to bring a DSLR or mirrorless camera and a tripod). As always, complimentary star-themed snacks will be available while supplies last!
