Reviews
"This is a hidden gem in Mentor. In addition to Northeast Ohio Native American exhibits, they have artifacts from all over the US and even have a collection of Mayan artifacts. Would highly recommend."
"What a great little museum!! We were surprised at the number of amazing artifacts from the ancient people of Ohio. The curator is very knowledgeable in the ways of ancient people and very willing to share her knowledge with others."
"Free parking. Located in the back of the plaza. Cool native American items. Largest collection for Ohio of pipes. Small baskets made of moose hair and masks made of whale bone. Tons of other things to see. Admission is $4 for adults. Has a small gift shop of native American hand made crafts you can buy."
"AMAZING TIME! BIG thank you to Ann. She is knowledgeable, shared wonderful stories, and answered all of our questions!"
"It may be a bit hard to find but it’s well worth the effort. The museum is home to over 60,000 items, with artifacts which were discovered locally as well as across North America. The museum offers tours and hosts groups ranging from seniors to preschoolers. A staffer is always on hand to offer background on all artifacts on display, and there are hands-on activities. Located in the rear lower level of the shopping plaza."
