For 97 years, we have been the "keeper and teller" of Fort Smith's rich and colorful history. We are located in the former Atkinson-Williams Building, which is listed on the National Historic Register.
The Fort Smith Museum of History acquires, preserves, exhibits and interprets objects of historical significance relevant to the founding and growth of Fort Smith and the region.
We do this through:
* Exhibits illustrating the contributions of Fort Smith's citizens to the cultural, political and economic development of the area.
* Educational services which are appropriate to the context of the Museum and the larger community and are integral to the Museum's mission.
The Fort Smith Museum of History is a 501(3)(c) organization.
