The Maturango Museum, located in Ridgecrest, California, is a renowned educational and cultural institution dedicated to preserving and sharing the natural and cultural heritage of the Northern Mojave Desert. With a wide range of permanent and temporary exhibits, including lectures, art and photography displays, and historical curation, the museum offers visitors a comprehensive understanding of the region's rich history and diverse ecosystems.
One of the museum's highlights is its famous Petroglyph Tours, which explore the largest concentration of petroglyphs in the Western Hemisphere, created by indigenous people thousands of years ago. While currently unable to offer these tours, the Maturango Museum continues to provide valuable resources and information about the petroglyphs through its website and museum gift shop, ensuring visitors can still learn about this fascinating aspect of the region's cultural heritage.
