I'll start by saying I do not believe in aliens. I do not believe in conspiracy theories. Yet I am…read moreobsessed with aliens and UFO's. As soon as we decided to come to New Mexico - I knew I had to come Roswell to the UFO museum. Since I am a bit obsessed with the Roswell incident. You know the weather balloon crash. So I get in the museum and I start reading everything and listening to all the testimony. And I actually started to believe that it wasn't a weather balloon. Until I read the statement from the funeral parlor director. Supposedly the army officers requested 4' caskets. Really - aliens? And your big concern is the size of the casket? They can't go in a regular size one?? Besides we all know that the aliens get stored in the lab at Area 51. In glass jars.

I was in town visiting family and of course I had to check the UFO museum out! Everything in…read moreRoswell is super cheap if you're from CA. So the $7 entrance fee was a super deal! All you have to do is be curious to come here. They have everything on display chronologically, some interesting visual displays, and it's a self guided with lots of captivating stories and tangible materials as it relates to the existence of aliens and UFO's. I went through here in about an hour. It would take you much longer if you read everything on display. Lots of the stories on the timeline are fascinating. I thought it was well put together and should be thrilling for the alien enthusiasts. After checking out all the museum displays, there's a decent sized gift shop offering various types of merchandise. I got a cool fridge magnet as a souvenir for visiting this infamous museum. If you ever come to Roswell, whether you are into or believe in aliens, you have to visit the UFO Museum. It represents what Roswell is known for, and it's just an overall interesting experience with everything chronologically displayed nicely.

To kick off 2026, I must write about the Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art in Roswell, NM…read more This place is outstanding. Allow me tell you all the reasons why... First, it's free admission. Free parking too. Donations were welcome. Second, this behemoth of a building is home to the Roswell Artist-in-Residence (RAiR) Program, founded by the now deceased businessman and fellow artist Don Anderson. There are - to my recollection during our brief introduction on November 29, 2025 - hundreds of artists that apply every year. They dwindle that number down to 6. The artists hailed from all over the world. Third, the artwork is fascinating. There was no limit to the use of mediums either. Each piece is labeled with the artists name, their country of origin, what year they were born, the years they were RAiR, the title of the artwork, the year of its completion, and the mediums used. My middle school daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed room after room of inspiration. They talked about a few of the pieces for several days afterwards. And to think... this opportunity resides in the flat desert of southeastern New Mexico.

The Anderson Museum was such a highlight of my lengthy road trip across the country. I was just…read moresearching Google maps to see what there was to do in town, and came across this museum. I didn't really have any specific expectations going in, but this place honestly blew me away. I've been to some of the biggest art museums in the world and been less impressed. Pound for pound, I don't think any other art museum has had so many pieces that I found compelling. If you are in the area, I can't recommend this place enough. It may be a relatively small place compared to the likes of The MET, but this museum holds its own.

If you are in town doing tourist type shopping & sightseeing alien museums, but want a break from…read morethe massive overload of alien merch, then stop by this spot! We decided to wander in to see what they had & we are glad we stopped by. It was a lot of fun looking at each of the booths that were set up while trying to find little treasures to take home. There is a good mixture of booths here, some have actual vintage products, some have handmade products and others just have bulk type nerd products like loungefly that they are reselling. The store itself seems pretty well organized & clean. Prices vary from booth to booth as every booth is run by someone different. Some booths have some great finds and great prices and others seemed a bit too high. We found a few neat things we decided to pick up!

Some cool stuff if you look around, BUT pay close attention to what you're buying. For example,…read moreBooth #68 is mostly AI art aimed at tourists. Several booths are like that so just pay attention. But yes it's mostly a tourist trap place for unaware folks from out of town shopping downtown.

If you're not much of a reader, you don't get the benefit of the full value of the museum but still definitely interesting to check out for just 7 bucks. There are clean restrooms here and a fun simulation as well as an awesome gift shop carrying lots of alien themed items. One thing that was very interesting is the Research center. I believe it's free without admission ( they accept donations). You can go inside and it's essentially a library with UFO and paranormal themed books, as well as a separate room for sci fi books and another room with more incident reports and such to look at. It's pretty neat and I wish I had more time to sit and read a few of the interesting books they had. In short, this place is more fun for adults than for kiddos but if the kiddos can read it may be interesting for them.

A very interesting place with all the artwork there in Roswell. Not bad and would suggest.read more
