"The Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center inspires dynamic connections to our region’s unique heritage. Through creative programs, exhibits and publications, we tell the stories of the people who have built our community. The Museum strives to foster an appreciation for the preservation and celebration of our collective community memory.."

Of special interest to flintknappers, the Wenatchee Museum and Cultural Center contains a permanent exhibit of the Wenatchee Clovis Points .

"This exhibit explores the 11,000-year-old Clovis culture, with special attention to a Clovis site discovered in East Wenatchee in 1987. Five of the large points from that excavation are on display as well as scientific casts showing the variety of magnificent stone knives, scrapers, and bone tools that were recovered from the site. Learn about “The Clovis Conflict: 1987-1992."
