My name is Vickie and I am the gift shop supervisor for the Akta Lakota Museum & Cultural Center.
I have worked for St. Joseph’s Indian School since 1997. My responsibilities include purchasing items for the gift shop, managing the summer staff and giving guided tours of the museum. I have learned much more about the Lakota (Sioux) culture while working here and it is very interesting work. Plus I am able to share the knowledge with our visitors.
We have a beautiful museum with outstanding displays of Native American art and artifacts, so it is always enjoyable to work in the museum.
We have remodeling going on in the museum at this time. When it is finished, our museum will be an even better presentation of the Lakota culture.
I have been working on getting some new items for our online shopping site. Several items we carry are one-of-a-kind, so the selection is constantly changing.
We have some very nice items that would make great Christmas gifts. I invite you to browse our online shopping site. You can place your order online or call us toll-free at 1-800-798-3452; we are available Monday – Friday to answer your questions or take your order over the phone.
