The National Park Service, in partnership with the Museum of Northern Arizona, is creating new public interpretive exhibits for the Wupatki National Monument Visitor Center. Take part in a design evaluation walk-through on Thursday, October 21 and Friday, October 22 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Museum of Northern Arizona’s Branigar Hall.
Small groups of participants will take guided tours of planned exhibit mock-ups, with tours beginning every 20 minutes from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Participants will then answer a brief questionnaire, recording their responses and impressions to be used in the final round of design decisions. From 3:30 to 5 p.m., participants can view the exhibit mock-ups without taking part in the formal evaluation process.
Families with children are strongly encouraged to attend at any time.
Visitors will learn about the entire spectrum of human occupation, experience, and subsistence at the Puebloan settlement of Wupatki, as well as perspectives on the region’s history.
Admission to the Wupatki design walk-through is free.The Museum of Northern Arizona sits at the base of the San Francisco Peaks and is located three miles north of historic downtown Flagstaff on Highway 180. For further information, contact the Museum at 928/774-5213.
