There are a few items in the New River Inn that the children might like to buy, such as dream catchers, Indian bracelets and polished rocks. There are also some items adults might enjoy, such as beautiful hand-painted tiles and historic books. We are a non-profit organization, so these sales help support our mission to bring the history of Greater Fort Lauderdale to life and preserve it for the enrichment of present and future generations.
