Welcome

Dedicated to the preservation and understanding of western multicultural heritage, the American Cowboy Museum, a 501(c)(3) organization, offers a unique setting, introducing groups to the contributions of blacks, hispanics, native americans, and women to the development and culture of the west.

This learning experience expands the horizons and enhances the academic studies of all children, especially inner-city youths who often never leave their immediate neighborhoods.

Just a short distance from the Reliant stadium and complex, in sight of the Houston skyline, museum visitors may be greeted by "Peter" and "Paulette" the peacocks, plus "Nibbles" and "Nefertiti" the goats. They all live on the historic Taylor-Stevenson Ranch - working ranch with seven generations of family pride and westrn heritage.

Together, the museum and the ranch provide visitors an exciting view of history and heritage.
