The Blackwater Draw Museum (BWDM) cares for archival materials of maps, paper documents, photographs, negatives, and slides.

Many of the photos in our archives are related to the Blackwater Draw National Landmark and excavations there. To see our online exhibit on the subject, click here.

Digitization efforts are currently underway to digitize many of the negatives and photographs in the collection as well as documentation associated with our 3D objects.
