City Officials Try To Lure Indian Museum To Sacramento Area

The city of Sacramento is on the verge of getting another major attraction that could bring in millions of visitors every year.

Proposed Indian Museum location

Sacramento appears to be the preferred site for a new state Indian Museum, according to officials.

The California Indian Heritage Task Force held a meeting in West Sacramento Monday to discuss the location for the museum.

City officials told the task force that a California Indian Heritage Museum would be most welcome, and they promised maximum cooperation to make it a reality.

"This kind of thing I believe should be in the state capital. We have a number of other visitor attractions, a number of historic sites, a number of opportunities for people to learn about he rich heritage of California," said Sacramento Mayor Heather Fargo.

The leading concept is for an Indian center in two locations: one along Richards Boulevard and another across the American River near Northgate Boulevard. A pedestrian bridge would connect them.
