The Turquoise Museum was one of the best collections of Turquoise we've seen and the knowledge we gained was wonderful. The museum isn't located in the best area of town, we recommend using their parking lot if you visit rather than the public parking which is a couple blocks away to avoid the many homeless people on the streets.

If you really like turquoise and want to read a great deal about it this museum is for you. There is a lot of redundancy in it so you have to have a high interest to keep up the interest in room after room of the stone. It is beautifully laid out and chock full of information. However, there is a high degree of repetition in the exhibits - ultimately, turquoise in its most common form is a gemstone to be set in jewelry, not (as with marble) a medium for sculpture or larger artworks. As such, the exhibited stones are mostly quite small, and the displays show jewelry pieces that are fairly underwhelming to the uninitiated.

I had no idea there was so much information and misinformation about Turquoise!! Very educational, love the science room, also loved the world trade displays and information. I also had no idea that turquoise has been prized for thousands of years! A huge thank you to the family curators for their hospitality while learning about my favorite “sky gem”!! Steph Pillar
