One show I particularly enjoyed was the first one on the tour it is a series of five-minute sessions about different creation stories from First Peoples across the United States. There are also amphitheaters throughout the exhibit that describe various aspects about Pequot life. Guests also learn about the Pequots' relations with the Dutch and English colonists, which includes details about a couple of wars.

The tour leads through several exhibits, which offer wonderful history about the region and the people who lived here. The dioramas were among the best I've ever seen notably, the Pequot village was particularly impressive.the details on the sculptures were so intricate that the human figures looked real! The building's exterior is very deceptive the exhibit is much larger than the outside might lead guests to believe (the tour encompasses three levels of the center). Native American history has always fascinated me, so I try to visit as many museums about the First People as I can, and this is the nicest, most well put together museum in New England.
