The Superstition Mountain Museum is in the Superstition Mountain range in Central Arizona. The museum offers visitors an experience of the Old West, focusing on the region's history, Native American people, early western settlers, local geology, and industry. The Museum Gallery features a detailed exploration of the region's history with artifacts, multi-media exhibits, and docent-led tours. Visitors can observe a working display of large-scale model trains and a 100-year-old Cossak 20-stamp ore mill and explore the museum's vast collection of Western movie and television history memorabilia. The Village exhibit includes two brush structures, a cooking area, and a hide drying rack, and visitors can find books, apparel, local Native American arts and crafts, and seasonal gift selections.
While the works of William Shakespeare have been presented in many different styles and mediums, there's something special about the way the Southwest Shakespeare Company interprets and infuses his work with their styled and engaging performances. The entertainment company has been paying homage to the iconic writer for over ten years through an always-impressive variety of dozens of productions. The shows are put on by not only an expert group of directors and technical personnel, but also by classically trained professional actors who skillfully link the spirit of Shakespeare's original work to some of today's contemporary issues.
It's rare when you can take the kids to a place that is as educational as it is fun. Fortunately, at least one of those types of attractions can still be enjoyed in Mesa when you take the family on a Superstition Farm Tour. The tour is offered on a walk-in basis and lets visitors experience what it is like to work on an actual dairy farm. Not only will you tour the facility and learn about everything that has to be done on a daily basis, you may actually get to do some of the work yourself!
