The museum is a top all-weather cultural attraction in the area, housed in three historic buildings with over 25,000 square feet of exhibits. Topics include Mimbres pottery, Indigenous and Hispanic heritage, pioneer life, railroad history, military artifacts, antique vehicles, quilts, toys, gemstones, and local natural history. Admission and parking are free, but donations are welcomed to support the volunteer-run museum. Travelers with large vehicles should call ahead for oversized parking or leave their RV at Dream Catcher and use a tow vehicle.
