Housed in an old church, visitors may become part of the museum by preserving their family name on engraved bricks. Call for museum hours and admission fees. While there, explore Block 32 of the frontier city of Little Rock, which includes the city's oldest standing building, the Hinderliter Grog Shop. Guests on the tour of historic homes will meet living characters from Arkansas' past. The new museum store has Arkansas-made crafts and products as well as reproductions of items in the museum's gallery collection.
Exhibits are free to the public.
Tours of the historic grounds begin each hour except noon. Special group rates available to students. Parking is free at Third and Cumberland streets. The stone and brick building in Little Rock's MacArthur Park has served many purposes since it was built in 1840, but it opened last spring as the MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History. Exhibits and artifacts include a Jeep from World War II and a cannon from the Civil War.
