The Silver City Museum is participating in the Taste of Downtown with traditional foods from the southwest. Come to the Silver City Museum on Saturday, September 6, 2014 from 11 am to 2 pm and taste Native American food! The Silver City Museum is located at 312 W. Broadway in Silver City.

Learn about the foods the Apache gathered in the Gila Wilderness and southwest. What kind of food did they find here to eat? How did they prepare it? Learn this and more by also visiting the current exhibit on the Gila Wilderness. The exhibit is very family friendly and you are sure to learn something new.

Funding in part for these programs and exhibits is made possible thanks to the members and volunteers of the Silver City Museum Society.

The Silver City Museum creates opportunities for residents and visitors to explore, understand and celebrate the rich and diverse cultural heritage of southwestern New Mexico by collecting, preserving, researching and interpreting the region's unique history.
