History & museums · Year-round
Trail End State Historic Site
Sheridan
The Flemish Revival mansion that cattleman John B. Kendrick finished in 1913 before serving as Wyoming's governor and then a U.S. senator. It is preserved with original furnishings and tells the story of the Kendrick family and early Sheridan.
Local tip. Tour the house, then walk the grounds and carriage house; the site hosts summer concerts on the lawn.
Official site ↗Arts & culture · Year-round
Ucross Foundation (Art Village)
Ucross (north Sheridan)
A working artist residency center on a historic ranch. The art village includes a gallery with rotating exhibitions and several sculpture installations on the prairie. It's known for its rural creativity retreat and ties to local history.
Local tip. The gallery in the converted bunkhouse is open weekdays; the ranch is private, but several sculptures are visible from the road.
Official site ↗Arts & culture · Year-round
The Brinton Museum
Big Horn, 12 miles south of Sheridan
A museum of Western and Native American art on a historic ranch at the foot of the Bighorns, with a modern rammed-earth building, the original Brinton ranch house, and gardens.
Local tip. The rooftop terrace and the bistro are reasons to linger; the ranch house tour is seasonal.
Official site ↗Outdoors · Year-round
Bighorn National Forest
West of Sheridan via US-14 or Red Grade Road
More than a million acres of forest, alpine lakes, and the Cloud Peak Wilderness begin a half hour from Sheridan. Trails, campgrounds, and winter snowmobile routes are all close enough for an afternoon.
Local tip. Red Grade Road from Big Horn is the locals' shortcut up the mountain but is steep gravel; use US-14 with a trailer.

WYO Performing Arts and Education Center
Main Street, Sheridan
A restored 1923 vaudeville theater that programs touring music, theater, dance, and community productions year-round, and runs arts education for kids in the region.
