The Eureka Springs Historical Museum is pleased to present our newest temporary exhibit! 150 Years of Companionship showcases the pets, strays, curious critters, and working animals who made their mark on the history of our town. Additional historical artifacts loaned by Good Shepherd Humane Society are included in the display, highlighting the Society's fascinating past.
A self-guided tour through our museum illustrates the history of the healing springs and the founding of our city. Permanent and temporary exhibits depict the indigenous people who first discovered the springs, the hardships of pioneer life, the Victorian renaissance that transformed Eureka Springs into a world-renowned health resort, and the arts and counter-culture movement that shaped us into the “town where misfits fit."
For November 2023, the museum will be showcasing the fantastically colorful works of Judy Hudson as our gift shop Artist of the Month! Judy works in several different mediums, and imbues her work with intense explosions of color and textures. She will be on site for a special artist meet and greet on the afternoon of Friday, November 10 from 2pm to 4pm, where guests can learn more about her inspirations and techniques.
The Eureka Springs Historical Museum is excited to announce that we will be hosting an opening reception for our new special exhibit – SIGNS. Included in this display will be a collection of historical signage and waymarkers from the museum archives, as well as some fascinating insights on the different approaches to commercial advertising that Eureka Springs has experienced over the years.
