The Agua Caliente Cultural Museum spans 48,000 square feet within a 5.8-acre complex, featuring permanent exhibitions, artifacts, and a 360-degree animation theater.
Archaeological discoveries during construction revealed artifacts such as manos, metates, and projectile points that date back more than 8,000 years in this location.
