Formerly the American Indian Archaeological Institute, this facility focuses on the history and culture of the Native American. In addition to the museum's permanent exhibit - As We Tell Our Stories: Living Traditions and the Algonkian Peoples of Indian New England - is a re-creation of a 17th Century Algonkian village, complete with longhouse and other structures. The museum has artifacts dating back 10,000 years and an outdoor simulated archaeological site. Study of artifacts is a continuing project. The work of American Indian artists is periodically showcased.
