The Wampanoag Tribal Museum located on Main Street in Mashpee, Massachusetts was once the Bourne-Avant House, built in 1793 by the great-grandson of missionary Richard Bourne.
The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was restored and turned over to the Mashpee Wampanoag in 1998 after a restoration of the building.
The craftsmen at Seaport Shutter were hired to make a custom black arrowhead applique and fabricate a mahogany screen and storm door for the entrance to the historic museum. The arrowhead was an important tool used by early human populations to hunt and protect.
The museum houses thousands of Wampanoag artifacts, including arrowheads and other stone tools.
