ABOUT THE MUSEUM
POWELL MUSEUM & ARCHIVES
The Powell Museum & Archives is CLOSED for the winter season and will reopen Spring of 2025. For questions about the museum or inquiries regarding private group tours, email amanda@canyonconservancy.org.
Founded in 1969, the John Wesley Powell Memorial Museum, now known as the Powell Museum & Archives, holds over 100,000 objects in trust for the people of Page, as well as other areas of the Colorado Plateau. Our collections focus primarily on the natural and cultural history of northern Arizona and southern Utah. To keep our collections in line with the passions of John Wesley Powell, the museum has focused on acquiring items that fall under cartography, archaeology, geology, paleontology, anthropology, as well as a focus on the unique city of Page’s history with the Glen Canyon Dam.
