What To Expect

Verde Valley Archaeology Center

The museum has nine galleries that cover family life of the 11th to 14th Centuries, mineral/ore collecting of ancient peoples, the history of the Yavapai-Apache Nation, prehistoric ceramic production, and the migrations of the Hisatsinom (ancestral Hopi). There are currently two special exhibits. Space Rocks! is an exhibit of meteorites on loan from Arizona State University's Center for Meteor Studies. These meteorites were all part of the Canyon Diablo meteorite that created Meteor Crater, however, they were found in or near Sinagua ruins in the Verde Valley area. A second limited exhibit is a retrospective of the art of Paul Dyck. The exhibit features works on loan from the Scottsdale Museum of the West, the Tucson Museum of Art, and private collections. Paul Dyck (1917-2006) was a local painter who grew up among many Plains Indian communities which became the subject of much of his work..

VVAC and Museum, now in a modern, wonderful new home, is exquisite. This small museum in a small town holds big, beautifully-displayed collections. That alone would be worth the modest price of admission, but there's more ... visitors are allowed to stroll into research laboratories, watch preservationists at work, and confer with curators. Outstanding!

Very Interesting, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting, so many artifacts showing culture plus a section regarding the Meteor Crater.

Great little center. Strange location in a strip mall. Very interesting pieces and history. Very welcoming staff and very knowledgeable. We never felt rush and questions were welcomed. Nice tiny gift shop. They are expanding and have much more pieces to set up for presentation. Research is done right at the center. Very nicely displayed with detailed information on each piece.
