Exploring the exhibits at FCMoD will be an experience like no other! Through a unique mix of science and history, you’ll encounter ideas, objects, phenomena, and events that paint a broad picture of the world, how it works, and your place in it. The 16,000-square foot main gallery combines hands-on and artifact-based exhibits in an open floor plan that invites you to discover the interconnectedness of everything from music to fossils to bicycles to … well, you get the idea! So, come explore … learn … reflect … have fun! The museum houses and cares for approximately 38,000 objects – only a small percentage of which are on display at any given time. Objects not on display are available for supervised, on-site research use by special appointment. Those wishing to research any aspect of FCMoD’s collections can make an appointment with the Collections Curator. Prominent among the Museum’s collections are stone objects from the Folsom-era Lindenmeier site and Clovis cultural complex; locally focused historic clothing and textiles; and household and personal artifacts dating from the mid-19th century.
