What travelers are saying
- Erin P47 contributionsCame during the day, couldn’t go back at night but it was still worth the visit. Got to look at the sun and took the tour to see the telescope. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful. Would have stayed longer but we had to get done lunch!Written August 12, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LizB86Spokane, WA141 contributionsAn outstanding collection of Native American art including jewelry, baskets, pottery and more. We spent about 3 hours and saw about half the exhibits. I have a much deeper understanding of the Colorado Plateau region and the tribes. We could have breezed through the various exhibits but we are the “read everything and move slowly, while taking time to appreciate each exhibit.” I hope we can return some day. (We are seniors and while there is a small children’s hands-on discovery area my guess is a 3 hour visit for kids here would be difficult.) This museum is a gem!Written April 22, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- michael wBend, OR35 contributionsA must see even if you are not a military buff. Excellent presentation, fabulous collection of important and interesting artifacts. The manager was most informative and congenial and gave his time freely.

- 5cindyFort Myers Beach, FL47 contributionsWe drove through the campus while visiting Flagstaff. Very beautiful, well maintained area.

- Opinionated WomanHalcottsville, NY60 contributionsThe Pioneer Museum has a bit of this and a bit of that which very nicely illuminates life in Northern Arizona. The lovely turn-of-the-century building exhibits artifacts from it's early days as a poor-house Hospital as well as displays about early tourism, ranch life, industry and more. Outside, an old train engine and caboose as well as a re-located cabin and many farm implements offer the opportunity for a nice stroll under the pines. Back in the main building, a really good gift-shop top off the visit. This is a nice museum for the whole family.Written April 12, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- DepardieuFlagstaff, AZ44 contributionsIf you are into photography (film or digital) and love to learn then you'll be in for a treat. It's not a fancy museum, but the history this guy packs into his little corner of the world made me want to hang out and keep asking questions. Sometimes he gets loaners from famous photographers, like Shane Knight, which allow you to see for yourself the camera(s) that captured very famous images! I also posted this review on Facebook.Written June 25, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jennifer SPhoenix, AZ58 contributionsI popped in here after I purchased a bunch of stuff from across the street at Arizona Handmade Gallery. Of course I bought stuff from West of the Moon Gallery too. Both of the stores are charming and a MUST stop in. Great selection of cool & unique items and the prices are reasonable. A MUST stop in and see/shop for sure.Written August 10, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- KenpashaBellingham, WA576 contributionsI always like to look at the local goings on on the art galleries so on Thursday in Flagstaff (alt 7000 feet!) I stopped into a couple of places on San Francisco street. Here I bought some cards by tamara Hastie, a young person who does palette knife work that captures the feel of Arizona landscapes. Good work.
Other good art was noted in the gallery. Front staff also helpful.
Enjoy!Written June 19, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It is warm and welcoming- overall a great space to come immerse yourself into the art scene of Flagstaff!Written August 21, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
