Wild West at Western Spirit Scottsdale 🤠🐎

Let's explore the West at Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West in Old Town Scottsdale. This museum has several neat exhibits that showcase the history and art of the Old West. This is their website with the list of exhibits: https://westernspirit.org/

They have a cool looking new exhibit, Still in the Saddle: A New History of the Hollywood Western, that showcases the history of Western films, up through the 1990s.

This particular museum participates in a neat program, called Museums on Us, with Bank of America and Merrill Lynch. If you are a Bank of America credit or debit card account holder, the first weekend of each month, you can show your card and photo ID for free admission. This museum now participates in the public library culture pass program, in which two people can get in free (please check with your local library for details). Prices for tickets to this museum normally range between $25 - 28 per person.

With regards to parking, Western Spirit has their own very small parking lot. There are also several public parking garages nearby, including one between 1st and Main Streets (directly under the museum, alleyway with a blue public parking sign).

Starting at 12:20 pm, there is a 45-minute docent-guided tour of the museum we can join.

Please keep your RSVPs updated. Looking forward to an early afternoon out West with everyone!
