The Arkansas Country Agricultural Museum was the brain child of local farmer Jack Crum and historian Bennie Burkett. Convincing the local citizens to preserve their heritage and to donate items to preserve that heritage took several years, but perseverance paid off, and in 1974, the museum opened its doors. The Stuttgart Agricultural Museum.
With the turn of the 21st century, the museum’s governing body decided that this name no longer suited the museum’s collections. As a result, the museum was renamed the Museum of the Arkansas Grand Prairie. The museum charges no admission fees, but we gladly and gratefully welcome donations. The museum also hosts a number of fund raisers during the year to support its operations. The museum houses over 15,000 items in its collections.
