Buffalo Bill Center of the West is a museum complex in Cody, Wyoming, operating in the Museums, Historical Sites, and Zoos industry. The center comprises five museums—the Draper Natural History Museum, Buffalo Bill Museum, Plains Indian Museum, Whitney Western Art Museum, and Cody Firearms Museum—covering the history and cultures of the American West and Yellowstone. Located at 720 Sheridan Avenue, Cody, the center sits in the Greater Yellowstone region just outside Yellowstone National Park’s East Gate and traces its origins to William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody, the town’s founder. The organization employs between 51 and 200 people and maintains a website at centerofthewest.org. It was formerly known as the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and presents narratives of Yellowstone and the American West through its galleries, exhibitions, and family-friendly programs.
