Deer Valley Rock Art Center
The Deer Valley Rock Art Center, managed by Arizona State University, opened its doors in December of 1994. The Center is an educational and research facility that focuses on the study of rock art in the Southwest. Since our opening, there have been more than 100,000 visitors. Visitors can experience a variety of programs at the Center including lectures, workshops, fieldtrips, and other special events.
The mission of the Deer Valley Rock Art Center is to preserve and to provide public access to the Hedgpeth Hills petroglyph site, to interpret the cultural expressions found here, and to be a center for rock art studies.
Arizona State University was selected to operate the facility in 1984. The Deer Valley Rock Art Center is today associated with the Department of Anthropology at ASU.-

"great program"

This is a funfilled hour long storytime. The children love hearing a story, doing a craft, walking outside to see of the wonders of the desert, especially the animals.

The museum and nature preserve are a great quiet place to sit and think and get away from the hustle and bustle of Phoenix and Glendale. The petroglyphs are best viewed in the morning before 11:00 am or in the afternoon after 3:00 pm. The museum offers informative displays. The nature trail is wide and well graded. Bring the kids to show them wildlife. Squirrels and rabbits abound and provide ample food for the owls and raptors on the property. The occasional javelina is seen in the early morning. Their website is both interesting and informative. Collapse
