Dignity of Earth and Sky
Dignity of Earth and Sky is a sightseeing stop in Chamberlain, SD. Cost: free.
I-90 Chamberlain Welcome Center, mile marker 264 · Chamberlain, SD
Why you should go…
Dignity of Earth and Sky stands at the Chamberlain Welcome Center on Interstate 90, on a bluff over the Missouri River. Sculptor Dale Lamphere created the 50-foot stainless steel figure to honor Lakota and Dakota cultures, showing a woman in a two-hide dress receiving a star quilt. The quilt's 128 steel diamonds glitter in the sun and move with the wind by day, and LED lights make them glow at night.
