Visited with my son in 2018. Enjoy our time here. Amazing museum. So many beautiful Native American things and artifacts. It was late Sept and there were a million butterflies around the lavender that was blooming out side the museum.
Went to this place 40 years ago. It gave a great incite into the native American culture
The dances are offensive, and I cannot quite believe that this place still exists. Came here when I was a child and I can say without a doubt, despite many very nice items in their museum collection, this is not engaging with Native community, and disrespectful to the art and traditions they are imitating. They have repeatedly demonstrated that they think nothing of the opinions of the peoples whose traditions they imitate. When people talk about cultural appropriation, I usually feel it is just nonsense, but the dances performed here are about as good an example of it as you could find today. Go visit an actual Native community! These people do not deserve your money or time if they do not want to improve, and it pains me that many boy scouts think this is engagement with Native history. It is not, and I wish the scout leaders and others here would actually educate their well-meaning scouts.nnBut the building is very nice and the museum has some great stuff. This place could be much better if they tried to have a more serious dialogue with the tribes they play on stage. As it is, several of those tribes have asked them to stop over the decades, and have been seemingly ignored. Is that a good example of cultural exchange?
Nice collection of Hopi art
This is an amazing museum, it's full of fantastic art and is a hidden gem I believe. However, they are only open Wednesday-Sunday. This is not listed on google, I want to save anybody from wasting a trip on a Monday/Tuesday!
