Beginning July 15th S'edav Va'aki Museum will be temporarily closed to the public for renovations.

After 50 years, the entrance lobby will get a new floor and a custom-made front desk. In addition, the space will become an inviting introduction to the O'Odham people, the descendants of the original inhabitants of the site, and our neighbors.

In addition, after 20 years, the “Dig It" gallery will be transformed into a changing exhibit space so that the Museum can present many new and exciting topics to our visitors. For example, when we reopen, or inaugural exhibit in the new Connections gallery is Following Their Roots – a comprehensive look at indigenous farming techniques across the diverse ecosystems of Arizona. This will include a timely discussion of sustainable farming practices and indigenous food sovereignty.

Depending on renovation work, we anticipate opening our outside trail only for visitors in early August. Visitors will be able to cool down and have access to restrooms in our Community Room area. The Museum will remain closed through September.

Please check back for specific details about trail openings, Museum reopening date, and exhibit opening dates.

During the closure, if guests want to learn more about what the S'edav Va'aki Museum has to offer visit our Virtual Programming page. Prospective visitors can also take look at our Online Exhibits page which has several platforms to view permanent and past exhibits or even take a virtual tour along the Interpretive Mound Trail .
