The Mesa Verde Foundation strives to provide exciting and educational experience through our tours and events. Tours provide those seeking deeper experiences at Mesa Verde National Park and the greater Ancestral Puebloan region with in-depth experiences. Our events provide ways for people to engage further with the Foundation in communities throughout the Four Corners region.
In October of 2019, President Trump and Finland’s president,
Sauli Niinistö, signed an agreement, making it possible for the
ancestral remains of 20 people and 28 funerial objects to be
repatriated to Mesa Verde National Park. This repatriation will occur nearly 100 years after the remains were removed by Swedish researcher Gustav Nordenskiöld.
On March 10th, 2020, the Mesa Verde Foundation will be
hosting a fundraising event to include a panel of experts who
will make presentations and answer questions surrounding the repatriation.
