“… part carnival, part curiosity cabinet, and part autobiography—created by one man with an inexhaustible drive to turn ordinary junk into wonder.”
Brian D’Ambrosio, Wander
“An ode to imagination, tinkering and finding awe and wonder in simple things, Tinkertown Museum is a joy.”
Lois Alter Mark, USA Today, “10 Must-See Stops on the Turquoise Trail.”
“The late Ross J. Ward, best described as a folk artist who drank sunsets for breakfast, left behind a temple devoted to inspiration, imagination and childhood dreams”
Pasatiempo, The New Mexican
“The fantastic, funky Tinkertown Museum is an enchanted assortment of miniature, animated Western scenes…The giftshop alone is worth the visit.”
