Hoopa Valley Tribal Museum
About Us
The Hoopa Tribal Museum Homepage was created in 2000-2001 by Conor Casey and Regina Pfeiffer, students at San Francisco State University, under the instruction of Dr. Lee Davis (California Studies Program) and Dr. Peter Biella (Anthropology Department), with the approval of the Hoopa Tribal Council and the collaboration of the Hoopa Tribal Museum, through Museum Director David Hostler and Museum Assistant Shawn Kane.
The Hoopa Museum is a non-profit entity of the Hupa Tribe created to preserve and to share the rich culture and history of the native people of northern California. The museum displays one of the finest collections of Hupa, Yurok, and Karuk artifacts in the world. The collection includes a fine display of local indigenous basketry, ceremonial regalia, redwood dugout canoes, tools, and implements used by the Hupa, Yurok, and Karuk tribes.
Located in the Hoopa Valley Reservation, the museum offers a unique opportunity to learn about the culture of one of California's first peoples and explore a setting abundant in both natural beauty and history.
