Powell Museum is a nonprofit organization that was created in 1969, for the purpose of commemorating the accomplishments and life of Major John Wesley Powell. The museum is conveniently located along North Lake Powell Boulevard, in the heart of Page, Arizona. The building the museum occupies was originally constructed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation as a testing lab for concrete, for Glen Canyon Dam’s construction. The museum is comprised of historic archives and collections, interpretive exhibits, an information center, and a gift shop with maps, books, local art, and artifacts with ties to the Colorado Plateau. Visitors will appreciate the free admission to this attraction, though donations are greatly appreciated.
