It's cool because it is part of the university but overall useless compared to UBCs museum of anthropology. Good to check out and do some photography in and the first nations art is absolutely stunning

I've been here many times and it always feels like there's something new worth seeing. I love the densely packed international section with all the drawers to pull out and explore. It's like a little treasure hunt every time!

Quite small, just one room within the bigger university building. It is almost completely dedicated to the history of Aboriginal people's rather than archeology of a broader range, which might not be of interest to everyone. There is a great profile of a complete rock slab on a far wall, showing all the layers of BC with explanations for each layer.

Museum of Archeology and ethnology is on SFU campus very close to SFU transportation exchange bay. Museum is well maintained and having beautiful sculptures also it has some unique carvings and history structures. If you are on SFU campus then it’s a must visit place for you.

Great place to be. I just dont know how they assembled all these rare and beautiful works of art.But can they not expand this museum and add some exotic items that would interest the public to come and visit.

Went here with my two young boys, thinking it would be a great learning experience for them. They were very bored :( I thought it was really interesting though. But I don't recommend to take your kids.

It’s located inside the SFU building, easy parking and near to transportation. You need to figure your way inside the university building to reach it . We had to ask several people inside to know where it’s located in the building. We attended one of the Halloween nights there. Kids liked it . The place is well maintained. Although it’s too small area but staff and volunteers were doing great effort.

Though the room is small, the place is filled with information. Many of the artefacts exposed are described in great details. It also has a slice of the soil built into a wall with the first evidence of our early ancestors coming from Asia to come across North America. I would have given 4 stars, but I am giving 5 since Mr. Rob Rondeau took time to show me personally some of the exhibition and also took time to hear and add on to my curiosity and enquiries about themes I have shown and would like to extend on in class with my grade 3 students. I had a wonderful experience!

Small and informative, really enjoyed this little museum packed full of displays and infoCampus is also great for exploring and if you walk to west end of campus above the transit loop there are fabulous views of city all around
