Deming Luna Mimbres Museum Showcases Wide Local History
The 30,000 square foot Deming Luna Mimbres Museum, housed in the Armory since 1977, offers dolls from the 19th to 1970s, Mimbres pottery, war relics, and curios like a 1904 Reo car and a roomful of whiskey bottles. Volunteers run the site with 13,000 annual visitors drawn largely by winter snowbird traffic, earning it praise as a "little Smithsonian."
