Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians

The Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians will develop a strategic plan and a master architectural plan for a museum/cultural center. The tribe has identified the need for a museum to house a growing collection of material artifacts and historic documentation to help the community connect and learn about the Chemehuevi people. The tribe will work with external consultants to develop the plans that consider tribal values, community needs, and expert opinions. They will also survey tribal leadership, community leaders, and other stakeholders to determine mission/vision statements, perform a SWOT analysis, and host a strategic initiatives workshop, Public meetings will be key to the development of a strategic plan. The architectural plan's development will include site visits and analysis, a space program report, initial concepts and cost estimates, and renderings of the proposed museum.
