Established in December 1989, the mission of this Museum is to provide a center for collection, conservation, interpretation, and research concerned with the history of Arkansas Tech University while making this knowledge and interpretation available to the community served by Arkansas Tech University. 

The Museum officially opened in April 1992 and accepts visitors between the hours of 8:30 a.m.. and 4:00 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday, as well as by special appointment, for evening lectures, and through events.

Each Spring semester, the Museum offers a course entitled Interpretation/Education through Museum Methods, listed as MUSM (ANTH, HIST) 4403(5403). 

The Museum Store

The Museum Store is now offering archival grade storage solutions for your valuable documents, photos and small heirloom items.  Stop by and see how we can help you better preserve your own history!

As an office, department, or employee/student of the University, The Museum Store is also generally able to save our customers 3-5% off of the catalog retail prices.  If you need a Gaylord Brothers catalog, we have them at the Store, or you can determine what you need at www.Gaylord.com and send that information to Judith Stewart-Abernathy, Museum Director, at jstewartabernathy@atu.edu.

Ordering your archival supplies through The Museum Store takes the hassle out of ordering.  We research the best prices available from our list of vendors, compile orders and, once your order is approved by you, place the order and track it in transit.  Patronizing The Museum Store also supports your local museum, since any net revenues generated support Museum
programming.

Open Tuesday - Thursday, 8:30am-4pm and by arrangement
Call Judith Stewart-Abernathy, 964-0831,  Monday - Friday.
