The Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum was founded in 1990 by Charles 'Bud' Thompson and has grown exponentially in its 26 years of operations. It features Native American art and culture-ways through its well curated gallery which features not only the Northeast Woodland Indians but also allows visitors to gain a better world view of tribes across the Americas. Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum is the only museum in New Hampshire which focuses on Native Americans."
