- Verify hours before visiting - the museum is open Tuesday through Thursday for public hours, plus the 1st and 2nd Saturday of each month. Don't rely solely on online listings as hours may differ from what's posted on websites.

- Book a guided tour with the knowledgeable docents, especially for homeschool groups or those wanting to deeply understand the Moulton family's pioneer history and the area's transition from Spanish land grants. Tours are highly accommodating and educational.
- Don't miss the interactive water system exhibit where you can simulate running a municipal water system with hands-on buttons and valve wheels - it's engaging for both kids and curious adults.
- Check out the gallery of Nellie Gail's paintings while you're there - this local artist collection is a nice addition to the historical artifacts and offers cultural context to the area's development.
