Explore Arkansas: Rogers Historical Museum

category:Arts and Entertainment posted:October 12th, 2006
At the award-winning Rogers Historical Museum you can discover the past through a wide variety of permanent and changing exhibits, educational programs, and special events.

You'll step into the turn of the 20th century with a tour of the 1895 Hawkins House and immerse yourself in thought-provoking exhibits offering folks of all ages interesting things to see and to do.

You can enjoy hands-on fun in The Attic, our "please touch" exhibit that is a favorite with families. And you'll explore a downtown of yesteryear on First Street, an exhibit that brings to life three early Rogers businesses.

With your visit to the Rogers Historical Museum, you'll come to appreciate the history of this corner of Northwest Arkansas through the stories of its people. Touching stories, funny stories, inspiring stories. Stories of famous people like Betty Blake (Mrs. Will) Rogers, political reformer W.H. "Coin" Harvey, or pioneer aviator Louise Thaden. And stories of ordinary people who lived through extraordinary times. The Museum's mission is to preserve and share these stories.
