    Sedona Heritage MuseumSedona AZ (August 10, 2020) – The Verde Valley is home to many quality cultural heritage sites and museums. Many of these are struggling to stay open, if they have been able to open at all, and to pay their bills.

    According to a survey by the American Association for State and Local History, one-third of museums feel there is a “significant risk” of closing permanently, or they “didn’t know” if they would survive this time of crisis. Regional museums are navigating a similar unknown future.

    These institutions often collaborate and are now collectively encouraging residents to consider a visit during these times of slow visitation. And parents might find a field trip to a museum a welcome opportunity to provide an educational experience for their school-age children. These excellent cultural and historical centers are right here in our own backyards and have worked hard to create safe visitation environments and protocols. They also want to remind residents that their Gift Shops are an important source of revenue for these organizations, and they encourage local patronage.

    These institutions offer order by phone, curbside service by appointment and have taken many steps to make visiting and shopping as safe as possible during these uncertain times.

    Many of these organizations are stepping into their pivotal role as educators providing virtual educational programs, experiences, and curricula to students, parents, and teachers during the current pandemic. However, without continued support, those efforts will be severely limited.

    To learn more about a visit or how you can do your gift shopping with one of these historic sites or museums, you can use the following guidelines and contact information. Remember, masks are required at all these locations. A phone call before your visit is recommended, in case things change at each institution.
