Mesa Verde Association, formerly Mesa Verde Museum Association, has been Mesa Verde National Park's official nonprofit partner since 1930. Mesa Verde Association operates the bookstore and giftshop at the Visitor & Research Center and Chapin Mesa Museum. Profits go toward supporting various interpretive programs, research activities, and visitor services. The association provides educational and interpretive material to visitors of Mesa Verde National Park through an active publishing program and the operation of retail stores in the Mesa Verde Visitor and Research Center, the Chapin Mesa Archeological Museum, and their online store. These resources enhance the visitor experience and proceeds from sales are donated to the park's interpretive, research and education programs. |
