Pequot Museum is located in an ancient cedar forest minutes away from Foxwoods Resort Casino. Our innovative, interactive, award-winning museum is the world's largest Native American museum. We inspire awareness and understanding of the cultures, histories and survival of northeastern (U.S.) indigenous people. Our spectacular 308,000-square-foot complex consists of permanent exhibits, the Mashantucket Gallery (for temporary exhibits), classrooms, a 320-seat auditorium, a café, a museum shop, collections, archives, archaeology, conservation laboratories and a viewing tower for panoramic views of the region. Our permanent exhibits take visitors on an 18,000-year journey through time, from Native American origin stories to present day.

I am thinking of the museum as a group destination for our Hadassah women's group. We would like to come off season with about 15 -20 women.
