  Fully Promoted La Mesa loves to deliver custom screen print tees to the Barona Cultural Center & Museum. It's a dedicated institution in Lakeside, California, highlighting the history, culture, and language of the local Kumeyaay/Diegueño People.

  I like this Native American Museum more than the others I have been to. I have visited the Chumash Museam and I have visited some native museums in Balboa Park. This one was more authentic than the others. It felt like I visited their home. I might be autistic and she listened to me when I spoke with her unlike other people in San Diego really did listen and did not interrupt. And gave me a warm filling when I Left like I have a friend who cares and is real in San Diego. I think she was Native American and more than pretty and nice! I was embarrassed. In a time of sadness for me she sparked in a flame of life in me somehow. I do wish I can see her again!!

  Loves the 2 animated film about Kumeyaay origin legends and myths. Small exhibit, and complimentary to Kumeyaay exhibit at Museum of us. A bit more focus on local history, and also a surprising Irving Gill retsrospective - he built all the home on the reservation and Barona church reconstruction. Free entrance.

  Nice and clean museum, some information about the natives and tribal people, it's not a big place but has the necessary stuff to get to know the culture, it's a free museum so you can't complain about it 🤪, I invite you to visit it next time you are in the area.

  Nice small museum with a changing display of artifacts ranging from unknown times of long ago to modern pieces made by current artists. History and culture presented from the point of view of tribal members. Admission is free. Doesn't take a lot of time to read the timeliness, study the artifacts and interact with some of the displays. Worth a visit; only a mile and a half from the resort.
