This was a very nice small museum but had a lot of information! We Home school and used this visit as part of a small field trip. They have a short video to watch, displays, and a gift shop with items from the local area.

I would highly recommend this small museum. Great information and artifacts on the local native history and culture. The girl at the front was very helpful. The admission is free however we made a donation.The items for sale are genuine native crafts which is really great.
