The former Lehi School provides a historic setting for a museum about Mesa's people and development. Local stories and changing displays connect the city to the agricultural and community history that preceded its present-day urban landscape.

Give some attention to the school building as well as the exhibitions inside. Review the museum's current visitor information for opening days and special displays, particularly if you are making a separate trip to the site.
