Native North American Hall - Field Museum

Native North American Hall has been a fairly basic exhibit, including weapons, dress, and models of housing, from a variety of groups of American Indians. The exhibit is now under construction, estimated to open in Fall 2021. A small amount of the exhibit is still open, and you can still walk through to reach the Pawnee Earth Lodge, which is an interesting exhibit. Perhaps most interesting for now are the windows into the rooms where conservation work is being done—particularly on weekdays you can watch the careful work on the artifacts that will go back up on display.
