Take advantage of this rare opportunity to explore the Museum of Northern Arizona's Easton Collection Center, an architectural masterpiece combining the most advanced environmental design with the worldviews of the region’s Indigenous people. Plants and Pollinators is the theme of this year\'s open house. Explore the intricate relationships between plants, their pollinators, and the people who have interacted with them for generations. From fossilized plants to delicate herbarium and biological specimens, from baskets woven with plant fibers to fine art celebrating the diverse landscapes of the Colorado Plateau—you’ll encounter a rich variety of objects from across our natural sciences, ethnography, archaeology, and fine art collections. MNA curators and staff will be on hand to share stories, research, and surprising connections between the natural world and human creativity. The Easton Collection Center is located on the opposite side of Fort Valley Road from the Museum. Coming from central Flagstaff, turn right at the Harold S. Colton Research Center sign. Go up the short drive to a parking area. The Easton Collection Center is the tall modern sandstone colored building with a sloping living roof.
