mt. kearsarge indian museum印象

The Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum is located in Warner, NH, not far from the center of the town. Wonderful place to learn about our American Indian heritage. Every summer they have a Pow Wow which goes on for two days. Friendly staff and in the afternoon you can catch a guided tour or walk around yourself. Also, have a nice gift shop as well. Have many interesting displays of native artifacts which are set up nicely. In addition, they have an outdoor trail in a wooded area in which to look at plants that the native indians use to grow. I'm sure you'll enjoy your visit here thoroughly.

We've been wanting to bring the gandkids here for a number of years but waited till they were old enough to appreciate it. The day finally arrived and at ages 8 and 11, they were just old enough to get something out of it. The museum is delightful, very well laid out, wonderful artifacts, and a most helpful staff person. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would come back when they are even older and know more about our country's early history.

Our tour guide was a sweet old man, although im drawing a blank on his name. He was very passionate about the culture and took his time in telling us everything, All of the artifacts and displays where amazing. This was a great place to go to.

Interesting! Informative! A bargain, too. Well organized displays, which do not treat "American Indian" cultures as monolithic. Well worth at least two hours for adults.

Little kids will like sitting in teepees and exploring. Not much here to excite adults, but it's a good field trip for children.

The admission fee of $8.50 included the museum collections and the special exhibit "Containers," which featured the works of nine contemporary artists producing basketry in bark, twined fibers and cords, gourd,splint, pine needle, cardboard, and newspaper. The museum is well-organized and the collections well-presented, featuring particular geographical regions. The museum showcases a surprising variety of collections designed to introduce people of today to Native American cultural expression and respect for the environment. Displays include an impressive array of "crooked knives," examples of moosehair and other types of embroidery, ceremonial pipes and musical instruments,and varieties of clothing, ornamentation, basketry and pottery from a range of tribes and regions. The fact that the collection was assembled by one individual is particularly impressive, and the life-long dedication of this individual to challenging modern man to learn from these "first nations" ways to improve the quality of our lives and our world is inspiring and motivating. The museum offers a number of educational programs and activities designed to appeal to young people and introduce them to the diversity of North American Indian cultures and their reverence for nature. While perhaps not meriting designation as a solo destination, this museum is definitely worth seeing if you have opportunity to be in the area.

Enjoyed learning about various tribes and customs. Craftsmanship on native dress, and tools, games etc.

Excellent museum about our Native Americans and the different tribes. The museum really covers them all and our Tour Guide was so very informative. Very accessible to Route 89 then you can drive up Mt. Kearsarge from there. Spend a day in Warner, it's fun!

Visited on a rainy summer day with my 8 year old. The staff was informative & helpful. Watched a wonderfully enlightening film as an introduction to the museum. We were there for the self guided tour.. Which I think I would recommend, as I was a bit overwhelmed, although they do give you a laminated sheet describing the collections. I will return for other events!

A fascinating insight into the lives of the Indian peoples; this museum located on the outskirts of a small NH town was a real find.
