ABOUT THE TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURE

A 2023 grant from Burners Without Borders helped fund a HABA at the museum, a traditional Paiute shade-structure made of Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi) logs and Coyote Willow (Salix Exigua) branches.

In 2025 we harvested cattails and Tule Reeds to build an authentic Paiute Housing Structure. Panels were hand-tied using a Numu basket-weaving technique.
