Very cute museum. When you come inside, make sure you check in by the front desk to purchase tickets. The exhibits are separated by rooms. There's one with Indian artifacts, one with baseball memorabilia, one with domestic artifacts from the 1900s, and another was an art gallery dedicated to cats. I love how the layout was well designed with authentic touches- such as how the historic stove had food on it, and the baseball area had an old turnstile and fenced in area with more memorabilia behind. Outside, there's a replica of a schoolhouse. The people working there really made me feel welcome.
This is a wonderful display of Mesa's history! It was nice to tie in a museum visit at the end of a work day, so it being small was actually a plus to me. It was easier to sell a quick trip to my teenager as well. The staff was very kind and willing to answer any questions, I can't wait to frame my souvenir!

The museum has a book fair which is awesome!. While at the book fair, the museum was open to the public. Love the history of the museum which was a school many, many moons ago! I talked with the director who had great stories about the school and it's pupils...Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entryFree
It's tough to get excited about this museum when I had just visited the Tempe Historical museum--which is free and has much better displays. This is a former school building with displays in 3 rooms. The rest of the building is not really being used well as museum space. There is an outside exhibit or two, but not much to look at for $5. I saw everything in about 30 minutes. Try the Tempe Museum instead--much better...and FREE!
Wonderfully curated museum. Fantastic exhibits!
Very nice local museum. We visited this museum with my 5 years old son and he enjoyed it.
Have lived in Mesa for many years & we have never been to this awesome Museum. We attended an Arts & Crafts event. Everyone was friendly & great conversations. A Great Day in our own Home TownVisited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot surePrice for adult entryFree
