Located on North MacDonald, the Arizona Museum of Natural History exhibits displays related to the culture, habitat, and history of the Southwestern United States. It was founded in 1977 as a small museum in the Mesa City Hall, a historic building dating from 1937. Over the years as the museum’s collection grew, the building was expanded and now contains 74,000 square feet.
About 46,000 square feet are used for exhibitions that display the collection of 60,000 objects relating to the anthropology, art, cultural history, and natural history of the area. The museum also holds 10,000 historic photographs. In addition to its permanent collection, the museum mounts several temporary exhibits.
