On the ground floor is where you’ll find the striking mask museum, a 4 room exhibit showcasing around 50 ornate masks used in festivals and religious ceremonies in communities throughout Bolivia. Upstairs is a permanent exhibition dedicated to the Uru Chipaya culture, featuring models of typical villages and explanations of their hunting techniques. MUSEF also has three temporary exhibition halls dedicated to displaying art, photography, ethnographic goods, paintings and various archaeological items from around Sucre.
