It's not a huge place, but really nice to see items that came from the immediate area the museum is located , Prescott, Arizona. Fascinating look into the ancient ones of the area & some understanding of the prehistoric life they lived. I recommended for all!

We were passing the Museum of Indigenous People by while on a recent visit to Prescott and seeing…read morethis out of the corner of our eye, decided to stop, and we were glad we did. And boy, were we excited having discovered it. The museum and its property are very nondescript, and that is a shame. It seems to be an underrated museum which should get more exposure and traffic than it apparently does. As their mission states: "To instill understanding and respect for the indigenous cultures of the southwest." And they do it extremely well. Within the unique stone building and confines of the relatively moderate size museum space are an incredible array of objects, relics, Nik-Naks, gifts, paraphernalia, and artifacts to peruse and learn the while away. Kudos to the staff and volunteers that do an excellent job of teaching those who stop in about this incredible culture.

The museum is one of the first things you see when you drive up the hill to Jerome. My husband and…read moreI stopped here after a day in town and it did not disappoint. The back story makes it even more fascinating knowing this came from the owners lifelong fascination with collecting. The owner and his wife were very kind and knowledgeable and seemed to love sharing their own personal stories about the collection. It is a small space but there is so much information and so much to look at. Would definitely recommend you check it out!

The one exhibit that I really enjoyed was a real uniform and personal effects of one of Teddy Roosevelt's rough riders. The family of the rough rider was gracious enough to loan it to the exhibit. It was really awesome seeing his uniform and personal items "photos" and all his personal militaria that went along with it.

The volunteers here are so informative and dressed in 1800/1900 attire. There are many impressive displays reflecting the history of Prescott through many different decades. We kind of hooked onto Linda & she followed us around, our choice, to talk about the different displays/periods of time. We're probably not your typical tourist, go in, take a look around, maybe spend 10 minutes & leave, we were probably there for an hour so like I said, if you're a history buff, you can definitely spend some time here!

I love this little museum shop. Hand sanitizer greets you at the door. This is especially important…read moresince this type of shop means touching small objects. Very friendly proprietor. Great variety of copper merchandise. Beautiful selection.

This is a unique find in little Jerome. As a history buff I found this quite fascinating because…read morethey have so many details covered on the town's varied history across a variety of subjects - seedy and not-so-seedy. It's only $2 per person to enter and they take all forms of money. My boyfriend and I saw it all in about 35-40 minutes (including me reading every minute detail and looking at just about every artifact haha). While the focus is on the area mines' histories, one cannot forget about the town history as they are both intertwined. The town flourished when the mines flourished and vice versa. I found it interesting on the bits about the "red light district history" too - a bit of a scandalous past but part of the past. Spend a little time/money here, shop/browse the jewelry for sale up front and you're golden for an hour or so.

Jerome Bible Art & Museum is exactly where you wouldn't expect. We found it to be an incredible…read morefind and absolutely loved browsing through all their sculptured art. Garrick and his artist wife Janie are Pacific Northwest transplants, who clearly had a calling to share their spiritual and artistic gifts. There is a somewhat life sized Roman Centurions (photo), a Lion from the Book of Daniel, a Cathedral reminiscent of the Basílicia i Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família in Barcelona and much more. Our favorites however was Janie's small donkeys with cute big ears (photo), that carried Mary & Joseph to Bethlehem, or was it, Jesus on Palm Sunday? You decide! We loved, loved Garrick & Janie's offerings and would recommend it to you on your visit to Jerome. They are in the back of the New State Motor building, across Main Street from Grapes Restaurant. As I mentioned in my Tip, Garrick and Janie 's Shop and Museum is open Monday thru Saturday, from 10 am until 4:30 pm. He tells me that on Sundays they open later, whenever they can get here from church.

Cheese crisps. Hatch green chilies. Pizza. Cotton candy. Rides for the kids and a few for the adults. Lots of shaded areas to rest and eat both. A concert will happen tonight. And don't forget to vote for your favorite art, quilt or cake.

This is one of the smaller county fairs that we look forward to attending each year…read more You can definitely get a feel for the nearby community with the animals they bring to show/auction, the artwork they have created, the photographs they have taken, and by interaction with those at the fair. It feels like a small town where everyone knows everyone. Great food every year by Steve's BBQ, the ladies in the booth with cheese crisps and hatch chile burritos, Pony Espresso drinks and smoothies, and AJ Masamas Fry Bread. Wonderful entertainment over the years by acts like Skip Banks, Greg Frisbee, Godfrey the Magician, The Conjurer, Slim and Curly aka Fables of the West, Matt Baker, and many more. Love that they have some form of entertainment strolling the grounds on a regular basis. One thing I truly miss is the music of George Johnson. He was a staple at this fair for close to 20 years (17 or 18, I believe). There are so many people that still talk about him each year and wish he would return. Many kids in the area grew up dancing in the covered area near his music tent. Hopefully, that tradition can be revived in the future. We have seen several fun bands on the main music stage also. Two favorites are Checker'd Past and Eric Dodge. Fun 80's music and some good ol' country music. The fair makes the most of the space they have and have the rodeo grounds, games , and carnival rides mostly to one side with rides extending along the back of the fair past the main stage. We have seen improvements made over the years, especially to the animal areas. Nice to see a fair reinvest in its own grounds and buildings to improve the overall experience. Weather can be odd from year to year. Last year it was very rainy and cold and other years it has been very hot and dusty. Can be very windy also so you may want to secure that hat on your head or have a tie so it doesn't completely blow away.

A nice little history museum about Jerome…read more We popped in here while in town to have lunch. The history museum occupies the back 2/3 of this building. The front 1/3 houses a gift shop of many art pieces etc. There was a $2 pp fee to go back to the museum section. We found the artifacts, plaques and more to be quite informative on why Jerome exists and what it was all about in its heyday of mostly copper mining. If you're in Jerome and want to take a deep dive into its history, this stop is a must.
